PHP-FPM (FastCGI Process Manager) is an alternative PHP FastCGI implementation with some additional features useful for sites of any size, especially busier sites.
$ docker run -it --name phpfpm -v /path/to/app:/app bitnami/php-fpm
$ curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bitnami/bitnami-docker-php-fpm/master/docker-compose.yml > docker-compose.yml
$ docker-compose up -d
- Bitnami closely tracks upstream source changes and promptly publishes new versions of this image using our automated systems.
- With Bitnami images the latest bug fixes and features are available as soon as possible.
- Bitnami containers, virtual machines and cloud images use the same components and configuration approach - making it easy to switch between formats based on your project needs.
- Bitnami images are built on CircleCI and automatically pushed to the Docker Hub.
- All our images are based on minideb a minimalist Debian based container image which gives you a small base container image and the familiarity of a leading linux distribution.

The recommended way to get the Bitnami PHP-FPM Docker Image is to pull the prebuilt image from the Docker Hub Registry.
$ docker pull bitnami/php-fpm:latest
To use a specific version, you can pull a versioned tag. You can view the list of available versions in the Docker Hub Registry.
$ docker pull bitnami/php-fpm:[TAG]
If you wish, you can also build the image yourself.
$ docker build -t bitnami/php-fpm https://github.com/bitnami/bitnami-docker-php-fpm.git
This image is designed to be used with a web server to serve your PHP app, you can use docker networking to create a network and attach all the containers to that network.
We will use PHP-FPM with nginx to serve our PHP app. Doing so will allow us to setup more complex configuration, serve static assets using nginx, load balance to different PHP-FPM instances, etc.
$ docker network create app-tier --driver bridge
or using Docker Compose:
version: '2'
networks:
app-tier:
driver: bridge
Let's create an nginx virtual host to reverse proxy to our PHP-FPM container.
server {
listen 0.0.0.0:80;
server_name myapp.com;
root /app;
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/index.php;
}
location ~ \.php$ {
# fastcgi_pass [PHP_FPM_LINK_NAME]:9000;
fastcgi_pass phpfpm:9000;
fastcgi_index index.php;
include fastcgi.conf;
}
}
Notice we've substituted the link alias name myapp
, we will use the same name when creating the container.
Copy the virtual host above, saving the file somewhere on your host. We will mount it as a volume in our nginx container.
Docker's linking system uses container ids or names to reference containers. We can explicitly specify a name for our PHP-FPM server to make it easier to connect to other containers.
$ docker run -it --name phpfpm \
--network app-tier
-v /path/to/app:/app \
bitnami/php-fpm
or using Docker Compose:
services:
phpfpm:
image: 'bitnami/php-fpm:latest'
networks:
- app-tier
volumes:
- /path/to/app:/app
$ docker run -it \
-v /path/to/vhost.conf:/bitnami/nginx/conf/vhosts/yourapp.conf \
--network app-tier \
bitnami/nginx
or using Docker Compose:
services:
nginx:
image: 'bitnami/nginx:latest'
depends_on:
- phpfpm
networks:
- app-tier
ports:
- '80:80'
- '443:443'
volumes:
- /path/to/vhost.conf:/bitnami/nginx/conf/vhosts/yourapp.conf
Since this image bundles a PHP runtime, you may want to make use of PHP outside of PHP-FPM. By default, running this image will start a server. To use the PHP runtime instead, we can override the the default command Docker runs by stating a different command to run after the image name.
PHP provides a REPL where you can interactively test and try things out in PHP.
$ docker run -it --name phpfpm bitnami/php-fpm php -a
Further Reading:
The default work directory for the PHP-FPM image is /app
. You can mount a folder from your host here that includes your PHP script, and run it normally using the php
command.
$ docker run -it --name php-fpm -v /path/to/app:/app bitnami/php-fpm \
php script.php
You can mount a custom config file from your host to edit the default configuration for the php-fpm docker image. The following is an example to alter the configuration of the php-fpm.conf configuration file:
Run the PHP-FPM image, mounting a file from your host.
$ docker run --name phpfpm -v /path/to/php-fpm.conf:/opt/bitnami/php/etc/php-fpm.conf bitnami/php-fpm
or using Docker Compose:
version: '2'
services:
phpfpm:
image: 'bitnami/php-fpm:latest'
ports:
- '9000:9000'
volumes:
- /path/to/php-fpm.conf:/opt/bitnami/php/etc/php-fpm.conf
Edit the configuration on your host using your favorite editor.
$ vi /path/to/php-fpm.conf
After changing the configuration, restart your PHP-FPM container for the changes to take effect.
$ docker restart phpfpm
or using Docker Compose:
$ docker-compose restart phpfpm
In addition, PHP has been configured at compile time to scan the /opt/bitnami/php/etc/conf.d/
folder for extra .ini configuration files so it is also possible to mount your customizations there.
The Bitnami PHP-FPM Docker Image sends the container logs to the stdout
. You can configure the containers logging driver using the --log-driver
option. By defauly the json-file
driver is used.
To view the logs:
$ docker logs phpfpm
or using Docker Compose:
$ docker-compose logs phpfpm
The docker logs
command is only available when the json-file
or journald
logging driver is in use.
Bitnami provides up-to-date versions of PHP-FPM, including security patches, soon after they are made upstream. We recommend that you follow these steps to upgrade your container.
$ docker pull bitnami/php-fpm:latest
or if you're using Docker Compose, update the value of the image property to
bitnami/php-fpm:latest
.
Stop the currently running container using the command
$ docker stop php-fpm
or using Docker Compose:
$ docker-compose stop php-fpm
Next, take a snapshot of the persistent volume /path/to/php-fpm-persistence
using:
$ rsync -a /path/to/php-fpm-persistence /path/to/php-fpm-persistence.bkp.$(date +%Y%m%d-%H.%M.%S)
You can use this snapshot to restore the database state should the upgrade fail.
$ docker rm -v phpfpm
or using Docker Compose:
$ docker-compose rm -v phpfpm
Re-create your container from the new image.
$ docker run --name phpfpm bitnami/php-fpm:latest
or using Docker Compose:
$ docker-compose start phpfpm
- Create An AMP Development Environment With Bitnami Containers
- Create An EMP Development Environment With Bitnami Containers
- All volumes have been merged at
/bitnami/php-fpm
. Now you only need to mount a single volume at/bitnami/php-fpm
for persistence. - The logs are always sent to the
stdout
and are no longer collected in the volume.
- Enables support for imagick extension
php.ini
is now exposed in the volume mounted at/bitnami/php-fpm/conf/
allowing users to change the defaults as per their requirements.
/app
directory is no longer exported as a volume. This caused problems when building on top of the image, since changes in the volume are not persisted between DockerfileRUN
instructions. To keep the previous behavior (so that you can mount the volume in another container), create the container with the-v /app
option.
We'd love for you to contribute to this Docker image. You can request new features by creating an issue, or submit a pull request with your contribution.
If you encountered a problem running this container, you can file an issue. For us to provide better support, be sure to include the following information in your issue:
- Host OS and version
- Docker version (
docker version
) - Output of
docker info
- Version of this container (
echo $BITNAMI_IMAGE_VERSION
inside the container) - The command you used to run the container, and any relevant output you saw (masking any sensitive information)
