Apache and PHP
PHP-FPM is the Fast Process Manager for PHP which runs as a service that spawns PHP processes as needed when files files are requested through the FastCGI interface. Passing this off to the PHP-FPM results in interpreting the PHP files much faster than having Apache spawn new processes each time a page is requested. You can read more about it here.
Step by Step Instructions
Install packages
apk add apache2-proxy php8-fpm
Run and Add Services to Startup
rc-service php-fpm8 start rc-update add php-fpm8 rc-service apache2 start rc-update add apache2
Configure Apache
Add the following lines to /etc/apache2/httpd.conf
<FilesMatch \.php$> SetHandler "proxy:fcgi://127.0.0.1:9000" </FilesMatch>```
Configure PHP-FPM
You can edit the file /etc/php8/php-fpm.conf to suit you needs.
