suPHP on Plesk

**Make sure yum is installed on the server as it will help to install the dependencies.

1) To get the latest version of mod_suphp RPM enable the Atomic Repository for Yum. This can be done using Following command

# wget -q -O - Path to RPM
Note :  Path may get changed.
Better to get from http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/4/idpl/1027655/com/apache2-mod_php-2.0.48_4.3.4-3sls.i586.rpm.html

2) After this mod_suPHP can be installed using command “yum install mod_php”

Configuration:

Once mod_suphp is installed, you will have to configure it with Apache.

1) First you will have to create a suphp.conf file in /etc/httpd/conf.d/ Directory and Paste the following code

LoadModule suphp_module modules/mod_suphp.so

php_admin_value engine off
suPHP_Engine On
AddHandler x-httpd-php .php .php3 .php4 .php5
suPHP_AddHandler x-httpd-php

2) Restart Apache Service using command “service httpd restart”

3) Now you will have to creae suphp configuration file. So, create a new file in /etc directory named “suphp.conf” (rename the existing file and create a new one) and add following lines in it:

[global]
logfile=/var/log/suphp.log
loglevel=info
webserver_user=apache
docroot=/var/www/vhosts
allow_file_group_writeable=false
allow_file_others_writeable=false
allow_directory_group_writeable=false
allow_directory_others_writeable=false
check_vhost_docroot=false
errors_to_browser=false
env_path=/bin:/usr/bin
umask=0022
min_uid=30
min_gid=30

[handlers]
x-httpd-php=php:/usr/bin/php-cgi
x-suphp-cgi=execute:!self

4) Restart Apache once more i.e. “service httpd restart”
