Followed everything from this thread: https://www.virtualmin.com/node/39270 But still no luck, Apache 2 runs as www-data and gives me loads of troubles because of that. Got some feedback from andreychek (https://www.virtualmin.com/node/41821) and he suggested to ask again in the forums, so here it is.
My machine is a Debian 8.5 fresh install, Virtualmin the latest and both php5 and php7 installed.
If you go into System Settings -> Re-Check Config, does it detect any PHP-related errors?
Apache is installed.
The following PHP versions are available : 5.6.24 (/usr/bin/php5-cgi), 7.0.10 (/usr/bin/php-cgi7.0)
Apache is configured to host SSL websites.
**.. your system is ready for use by Virtualmin.**

Even after commenting out the php5 handlers I still get the same user , www-data. Note that I do not have a php7 handler in there.

I even removed php5.6 so php7 is the only version on the system, still same results. Anybody know how to fix this? I lover php7, really fast.

Hmmmm, when using php-fpm there is a file in the pool.d directory which says:
; Unix user/group of processes; Note: The user is mandatory. If the group is not set, the default user's group
; will be used.
user = www-data
group = www-data
/etc/php/7.0/fpm/pool.d/www.confYep, when I adjust that file manually it works as it should.
EnvironmentVariable Value
USER xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
HOME [matching homedir for xxxxxx]
When I remove the www.conf file from the pool.d directory then php-fpm will not start at all.

So what should I do with the www.conf file so that the proper user and group are chosen?
none
