PHP-FPM is the recommended solution to run a FastCGI server for PHP for Nginx. 

= Prerequites =

; [[:Category:Web Server|Web Server]]
: Serve PHP pages

= Required Packages =

{{bc|1=sudo pacman -Syu --needed php-<nowiki>{acpu,fpm,gd,imagick,intl,redis,sodium}</nowiki>}}

= Configuration =

Look for and edit the following lines in {{ic|/etc/php/php.ini}}:

{{hc|/etc/php/php.ini|2=
[PHP]
open_basedir = /srv/http/:/home/:/tmp/:/usr/share/pear/:/usr/share/webapps/:/dev/urandom:/proc/meminfo
include_path = ".:/php/includes:/usr/share/pear"
upload_max_filesize = 8M

extension=apcu
extension=dba
extension=exif
extension=gd
extension=gettext
extension=iconv
extension=imagick
extension=imap
extension=intl
extension=sodium
extension=ldap
extension=mysqli
zend_extension=opcache
extension=pdo_mysql
extension=soap

[Date]
date.timezone = <timezone>

[Pdo_mysql]
pdo_mysql.cache_size = 2000

[opcache]
opcache.enable=1
opcache.enable_cli=1
opcache.memory_consumption=128
opcache.interned_strings_buffer=8
opcache.max_accelerated_files=10000
opcache.revalidate_freq=1
opcache.save_comments=1
}}

== tmpfs for PHP Sessions ==

{{hc|/etc/php/php.ini|2=
[Session]
session.save_path = "/srv/phptmp"
}}

Find the id and gid of the mysql user and group:

{{hc|$ id mysql|2=
uid=27(mysql) gid=27(mysql) groups=27(mysql)
}}

{{hc|/etc/fstab|2=
# Static information about the filesystems.
# See fstab(5) for details.

# <file system> <dir>           <type>  <options>                                       <dump> <pass>
...
tmpfs		/srv/phptmp	tmpfs	rw,noatime,gid=27,uid=27,size=100M,mode=0750	0 0
...
}}

{{note|1=If you're using ZFS, add<tt> x-systemd.after=zfs.mount </tt>to the mount options.}}

= Finalization =

Then make sure the {{ic|php-fpm}} service is enabled and running:

{{bc|sudo systemctl enable --now php-fpm}}
