I think I understand the root cause of the issue now. See this comment: [image] Webmin/Virtualmin or paquets of 13/07/2026 update broke PHP-FPM configurations for all virtual servers Virtualmin Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh, I think I now understand what is actually causing …

From the latest 7 so I guess it was 7.50.2 (I keep this always up to date). Other things I noticed: systems where I didn’t add alternative PHP versions (so mostly where I kept the PHP8.2 of Debian 12) are not affected on systems where I added alternative versions of PHP (as per Configuring Multip…
