Starting httpd: httpd: Syntax error on line 221 of /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf: Syntax error on line 6 of /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf: Cannot load /etc/httpd/modules/libphp5.so into server: /etc/httpd/modules/libphp5.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


This is basically caused by the PHP module specified in php.conf being non existent.  The error tells us it couldn't fnd /etc/httpd/modules/libphp5.so

OK let's see what PHP module we do have:

ls /etc/httpd/modules/libphp*
/etc/httpd/modules/libphp7-zts.so  /etc/httpd/modules/libphp7.so

If you have one there that works for you then just update php.conf to match.

sed -i s/"libphp5.so"/"libphp7.so"/g /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf
sed -i s/"php5_module"/"php7_module"/g /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf
