+# How to install php7.4-fpm with Ubuntu
+--------
+### Add php7.4 repository
+```
+sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php
+sudo apt-get update
+```
+
+### Install php7.4-fpm
+```
+apt install php7.4-common php7.4-cli php7.4-zip php7.4-opcache php7.4-mysql php7.4-mbstring php7.4-json php7.4-intl php7.4-gd php7.4-fpm php7.4-curl php7.4-bz2 php7.4-bcmath php7.4-imap php7.4-recode php7.4-soap php7.4-xml php7.4-imagick php7.4-memcache php7.4-memcached php7.4-igbinary php7.4-msgpack php7.4-redis
+```
+
+**Copy the php7.4-fpm pool configuration from php7.0-fpm**
+```
+cp -f /etc/php/7.0/fpm/pool.d/www.conf /etc/php/7.4/fpm/pool.d/www.conf
+```
+
+**Edit the listening port of php7.4-fpm (for example 9074 instead of 9070)**
+```
+nano /etc/php/7.4/fpm/pool.d/www.conf
+```
+Replace the line `listen = 127.0.0.1:9070` by `listen = 127.0.0.1:9074`<br>
+Restart the service
+```
+service php7.4-fpm restart
+```
+Then to use php7.4-fpm, you have the choice between 
+
+--------
+
+### 1) Replace globally php7.0-fpm with php7.4-fpm
+
+In this case just edit the file /etc/nginx/conf.d/upstream.conf and replace the line `server 127.0.0.1:9070;` by `server 127.0.0.1:9074;`<br>
+```
+nano /etc/nginx/conf.d/upstream.conf
+```
+Then reload nginx
+```
+service nginx restart
+```
+--------
+
+### 2) Add php7.4-fpm as an additional php version
+
+Add the following lines in /etc/nginx/conf.d/upstream.conf
+```
+upstream php74 {
+server 127.0.0.1:9074;
+}
+```
+then copy the files /etc/nginx/common/php7.conf into  /etc/nginx/common/php74.conf<br>
+And into this copy replace the line `fastcgi_pass php7;` by `fastcgi_pass php74;`<br>
+
+Reload nginx and you can replace the line `include common/php7.conf;` by `include common/php74.conf;` in the vhosts of your choice<br>
