On my Rocky 9 box, this file does not exist and I cannot find that it
is even suppose to exist. But I'm not sure how php is suppose to work
on Apache without it.
Hi Gary,
Glad you worked it out, but just in case you're curious, the reason you
can't find a `libphp5.so` or `libphp8.so` file is because with PHP 7 and
8 the preferred way to execute php scripts is via PHP-FPM, and most
distros will install PHP this way by default. PHP-FPM has much better
performance and security, and most PHP apps will run fine without
modification. The apache configuration to use PHP-FPM is somewhat
different, as you discovered.
