Install Old PHP Version

SYSTEM INFORMATION
OS type and version Ubuntu 22.04 LTS

I want to use multiple PHP version in virtualmin as i’m getting error HTTP 500 error i think this issue comes due to PHP version can anyone help me on that?

And what if i install php 7.4 does php 8.1 removed or i can use anyone of them? or after installation does it harm other virtual server which is running on php 8.1?

Hi,

To the best of my knowledge You can have multiple PHP versions installed and activated at the same time in which Your users can choose from. Im not certain if this choice must be made from the admin end or if the user is allowed to choose but I remember installing multiple versions of PHP during my install so there must be a reason for their use. I do believe during script installs they will ask You which PHP version and which database etc You want to use so that is where You would choose from the user end to my knowledge.

I would first search Your settings in Webmin root user for PHP configurations/settings and then also in your primary user account for the same options. Be sure to look if there is an option to select PHP versions.

Thank you

It’s configurable. I believe the domain owner user can configure PHP stuff for their domain, by default, but it can be disabled by the admin.
