UPDATE:

Comparing the command you ran and the command you provided here, I can see that yours have several "php5..", while here it is only php, example: php-json (github), php5-json (video)

Hi there! Which version of Ubuntu are you using? The github documentation is the one I keep up-to-date, so that should always take precedence over the specific commands you see in the video. Since the course was filmed, PHP has had a major version update with a bunch of config file locations changing.

Hey,

Thanks for the prompt reply. I am using Ubuntu 16.04

I believe I found the issue:

When I go to this github project I get to this page:
https://github.com/groovemonkey/hands_on_linux-self_hosted_wordpress_for_linux_beginners

Then I just click on the "5-basic-phpfpm-and-php-configuration.md" and it gets me to:
https://github.com/groovemonkey/hands_on_linux-self_hosted_wordpress_for_linux_beginners/blob/master/5-basic-phpfpm-and-php-configuration.md

Seems that this is not the most up to date version. Sorry if I am doing something wrong, I am new-user on github. Looking at the Q&A on the course I could find this updated page here, with instructions for ubuntu 16.04:
https://github.com/groovemonkey/hands_on_linux-self_hosted_wordpress_for_linux_beginners/blob/655e44bee950e43f90c04997058ccac8264f68f4/5-basic-phpfpm-and-php-configuration.md

Not sure why this is not the default page for step 5. Is it wrong or I am doing something wrong?

Thanks again for your time.

Ah, thanks for clarifying. Yes, the first page you linked is actually the newest one -- I removed instructions for Ubuntu 15.10 and earlier, since they are no longer supported (and in the case of 14.04, no longer really used for new projects).

Just to make sure I understand: are you experiencing an error when following along to the videos with the (updated) instructions on Github?

Or is it just the confusion of seeing config directories and service names that are slightly different vs what you see in the video (I agree that it's annoying, sorry about that!)?

Happy to keep helping, either way!

Ok, let's go:

You are telling me that this page is the updated one, correct?
https://github.com/groovemonkey/hands_on_linux-self_hosted_wordpress_for_linux_beginners/blob/master/5-basic-phpfpm-and-php-configuration.md

So following this page I get stuck when I restart the service. Looking at the log I found:

[01-Apr-2018 11:35:08] ERROR: failed to post process the configuration
[01-Apr-2018 11:35:08] ERROR: FPM initialization failed
[01-Apr-2018 11:35:08] ERROR: No pool defined. at least one pool section must be specified in config file

Looking at the directory "/etc/php/7.0/fpm/pool.d/" it is empty now.

When looking at the github page you tell us to delete the original pool:

Remove the original (default) pool:
rm /etc/php/7.0/fpm/pool.d/www.conf

but then there are no instructions to create a new one.

The other page I mentioned...

https://github.com/groovemonkey/hands_on_linux-self_hosted_wordpress_for_linux_beginners/blob/655e44bee950e43f90c04997058ccac8264f68f4/5-basic-phpfpm-and-php-configuration.md

...has the correct instructions, following it works! You instruct us there to create a new pool and you also provide the contents.

What I think it happened is: you edited the page (removed instructions for Ubuntu 15.10 and earlier) and when you updated the link on github you pointed to a incomplete version.

I hope it is clear now, and I also hope I am not crazy :-)

Yikes, you're absolutely right! Sorry about that! I'll fix the new version ASAP; thanks for letting me know.

from hands_on_linux-self_hosted_wordpress_for_linux_beginners.

Just fixed it -- thanks! https://github.com/groovemonkey/hands_on_linux-self_hosted_wordpress_for_linux_beginners/blob/master/5-basic-phpfpm-and-php-configuration.md
