Hello everyone… I’m using PHP 7.4 for the majority of my website, but I would like to use PHP 5.6 in one of the subdirectories. So I’ve set up that sub directory to use 5.6 but it doesn’t seem to work. What am I doing wrong here?
Hello,
Usually you should omit specifying public_html/ part, as the actual path should be relative to document root.

Could we make this uniform please, for the convenience of all? In Virtualmin → Server Configuration → Edit Proxy Website we need to include public_html, see the second screenshot in:
No, these are completely two different application cases, and inclusion of “public_html” on Server Configuration ⇾ Website Options page is actually a definition of a directory that contains web content. By the way, I wouldn’t use it the way you do.
Yes, I see your point about including public_html automatically and implicitly where web content can be assumed.
My intent was not to do anything risky, if you could expand (in the original thread) upon a different and better way, we would all be grateful.
The best solution is an accepted answer – you should use subdomains, rather than changing document root. I assume you could as well use re-writes or proxy pass but this is like scratching your right ear with the back of your left hand while reaching from behind of your head.
