Issue with multiple PHP versions after installing php-mcrypt

CentOS Linux 6.7 Webmin version 1.760
Virtualmin version 4.18.gpl

I have an issue with PHP after installing php-mcrypt. To install php-mcrypt I followed the instructions here:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17109818/install-php-mcrypt-on-centos-6

Specifically:

“I had the same issue, and found the previous suggestions gave me enough info to get it working on my server. The following is what I did:

1) Install EPEL repository (From: http://www.rackspace.com/knowledge_center/article/installing-rhel-epel-r...):

wget http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm

wget http://rpms.famillecollet.com/enterprise/remi-release-6.rpm

sudo rpm -Uvh remi-release-6.rpm epel-release-6.rpm

2) Install it via:

yum update

yum install php-mcrypt*

The yum update updated the repository reference on my server then the 2nd command got what I needed :)

3) Restart your webserver. For my apache install I did:

service httpd restart”

php-mcrypt is now installed and working with php 5.3 however now the server won't run multiple php versions.

When I try and use PHP 5.4 php doesn't execute when I try and browse a site it downloads a file rather than rendering the page in the browser.

Can anyone help me with this issue?

A little more detail on this; the issue I have now is I cannot run sites in either CGI or FCGI mode now I can only run as mod_php and when in mod_php mode the php for the site is controlled via /etc/php.ini not /home/site/.../php.ini

Something to do with the install of php-mcrypt now means CGI & FCGI modes no longer work. Can anyone help/advise me on how to fix this issue???

OK for anyone who has this same issue I've resolved it, it turns out it relates to:

https://www.virtualmin.com/documentation/system/faq#Why_does_PHP_ProFTPd...

I found this

SetHandler application/x-httpd-php

in /etc/httpd/conf.d/php54-php.conf

Commented out and restarted Apache and now multiple php versions work as I can now set/use CGI & FCGI modes and selected php 5.4
