I want to override the PHP version for one of the directory's of my website. Because the forum application in there is not compatible with PHP 7.

To do this I've tried adding this to my .htaccess file:
Code:

<IfModule mod_fastcgi.c>
 AddType application/x-httpd-fastphp5.6 .php
 Action application/x-httpd-fastphp5.6 /php5.6-fcgi
 Alias /php5.6-fcgi /usr/lib/cgi-bin/php5.6
 FastCgiExternalServer /usr/lib/cgi-bin/php5.6 -socket /var/run/php/php5.6-fpm.sock -pass-header Authorization
 <Directory /usr/lib/cgi-bin>
  Require all granted
 </Directory>
</IfModule>

Unfortunately that doesn't work as we can't use Alias and FastCGiExternalServer in .htaccess files.

I then tried adding
Code:
<Directory /var/www/xgclan.com/public_html/forum/>
<IfModule mod_fastcgi.c>
 AddType application/x-httpd-fastphp5.6 .php
 Action application/x-httpd-fastphp5.6 /php5.6-fcgi
 Alias /php5.6-fcgi /usr/lib/cgi-bin/php5.6
 FastCgiExternalServer /usr/lib/cgi-bin/php5.6 -socket /var/run/php/php5.6-fpm.sock -pass-header Authorization
 <Directory /usr/lib/cgi-bin>
  Require all granted
 </Directory>
</IfModule>
</Directory>

In to my virtual host file but this doesn't work either, because
Code:
Alias cannot occur within <Directory/Location/Files> section

I'm not quite sure what else to do.

I could move the forum application to it's own subdomain with it's own virtualhost, but that is a little drastic and I'd like to consider other options first.

Got it working Very Happy Cool

Simply add:
Code:

<IfModule mod_fastcgi.c>
 Alias /php5.6-fcgi /usr/lib/cgi-bin/php5.6
 FastCgiExternalServer /usr/lib/cgi-bin/php5.6 -socket /var/run/php/php5.6-fpm.sock -pass-header Authorization
 <Directory /usr/lib/cgi-bin>
  Require all granted
 </Directory>
</IfModule>

To the apache2.conf (or modules fastcgi.conf)

Then in .htaccess
Code:

<IfModule mod_fastcgi.c>
 AddType application/x-httpd-fastphp5.6 .php
 Action application/x-httpd-fastphp5.6 /php5.6-fcgi
</IfModule>

Could you replace this by something in your conf-files (after the code with the alias definition):

Code:
<Directory /var/www/xgclan.com/public_html/forum/>
  <IfModule mod_fastcgi.c>
    AddType application/x-httpd-fastphp5.6 .php
    Action application/x-httpd-fastphp5.6 /php5.6-fcgi
  </IfModule>
</Directory>

I always try to avoid changes like this in the .htaccess...
