Hello all,
We recently updated to php 5.6 on a Ubuntu 14.04 LEMP stack to meet a dependency requirement and after doing this our server can no longer find phpmyadmin.
The nginx error log states…
*7225 connect() to unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock failed (2: No such file or directory) while connecting to upstream, client: 147.0.179.114, server: localhost, request: “GET /phpmyadmin/ HTTP/1.1”, upstream: “fastcgi://unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock:”
I know it’s probably because it needs to use php5.6-fpm.sock now, but I can’t find where to change that at?
I’ve already updated nginx sites-available and sites-enabled config file.
Any ideas?

Using
/var/run/php5-fpm.sock
isn’t required and you can swap back over to TCP quickly and easily.First thing we need to do is login to SSH as
root
or yoursudo
user and then navigate to:You’ll see a file named ``www.conf```. That’s the file we need to modify, so go ahead and open it:
Now we need to find the line that looks like this:
Change that line to read:
Then restart
php-fpm
using:The only time this won’t work is if NGINX is configured to route PHP requests to another port, such as
9001
,9002
, etc. This is possible, so if the above doesn’t work, don’t worry, we just need to do a little more investigating.You’d want to browse over to
/etc/nginx
and look insites-available
for your NGINX server block configuration file, open it and find the location block that handles your PHP requests and see what the port is there.Once you have the port that is set in one of the configuration files for your site, simply copy that port to the above PHP-FPM configuration. In most cases,
9000
is the default, but in rare cases, some pre-configurations use another.
