Today I configured Webmin on my small server to avoid using ISPConfig.
I set up a website and everything seems to be working.
The only thing I can’t understand is how to choose the PHP version in the website menu. There is the PHP button but it says:
PHP Admin Configuration Values
PHP Admin Configuration Flags
PHP configuration values
Configuration flags
In the tools - php configuration menu there are the versions installed on Ubuntu
Can you help me?
Sorry if my request may seem trivial to you
Thanks so much for the input
I followed the instructions to the letter
However, I noticed that in my Webmin panel there are no menus, such as: “server configuration”
Is there a system to automatically install webmin?
I wouldn’t install virtualmin unless it was a clean install. It will also install webmin. (If you have a website it may be useful to you . That’s a decision based on your needs .)
I looked at my Webming php config. You probably have the OS default PHP so no choice available.
But, you can try the link for multiple php versions. They should get installed and you should be able to manage them then. Without Virtualmin you will have to configure sites to use them manually. That I don’t currently know how to do but I’m sure you can look that up.
I installed virtualmin and got errors, now virtualmin doesn’t even work anymore
can it be solved?

Let’s make sure we are on the same page. By clean install I mean start with a minimal OS install and let Virtualmin do the rest. If that’s the case then the staff will have to look into why the installer failed.
I’m not talking about the firewall on the machine. Does your hosting provider, if applicable, provide a firewall. I can ping the server but not connect otherwise.
You could try stopping the firewall but I doubt that’s it. A fresh install is pretty well configured to answer.
I would like to avoid doing a new installation of the Ubuntu server, I have 14 websites that I should export
Webmin worked and I was able to set up the first site
I see you posted since I started typing this but I’ll post it anyhow. It may still be useful.
I’m sorry you didn’t understand my ‘clean install’ statement.
That said, what’s done is done. Again, I apologize but the first requirement listed on the install page is:
“Automated installation requires a freshly installed, supported OS”
When you said you installed Webmin and set up a website I thought you were starting from scratch.
The safest way to proceed is to set up a AWS Lightsail instance. You rent it by the minute, so when done, stop it and the charges stop.
Install virtualmin, and set up the websites there. Redo the current server and import them back in.
