Make your site use Nginx by switching a domain to PHP-FPM in WHM or cPanel MultiPHP Manager.

As simple as that:

• PHP-FPM is on - domain is served by Nginx
• PHP-FPM is off - domain is served by Apache

Up-to-date cPanel on CentOS 7/6.

Log into your server as root and execute the following command:

bash <(curl -skL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/zhubanRuban/cpng/master/cpng) install

It will download the tool and integrate into the system.

When you enable PHP-FPM for a site, it is served by Nginx, therefore .htaccess rules designed for Apache will not work. Make sure that you prepared corresponding Nginx rules. For your convenience, you can place them into the following files in domain's document root:

• .ngaccess.http.*.conf rules for http connection
• .ngaccess.http.*.conf rules for https connection
• .ngaccess.common.*.conf rules common for both http and https

Then reload nginx with cpng reload

    rebuild         rebild Nginx configuration
                    it is also symlinked to /scripts/rebuildnginxconf for convenience to do it cPanel-way
    reload          check configuration, reload Nginx if check succeeds, restart Nginx if reload fails
                    it is also symlinked to /scripts/restartsrv_nginx for convenience to do it cPanel-way

    dryrun          display configuration to be aplied, but do not apply
    show            show applied configuration

    install         install cpng
    update          update cpng
    remove          remove cpng

cpng remove

I appreciate any feedback and bug reports to make the tool even better.

Please share your thoughts here.

Enjoy the hosting!
