I'm testing Drupal 8 as a custom app under /var/www using a custom vhost (this nginx_wp_include.conf example https://gist.github.com/omega8cc/1677835).

Recently php 5.4 was enforced for D8, so I'd like to set this version for the D8 vhost. How can we do that?

And by the way, is there a better vhost example than the wordpress one that I could use for a Drupal 8 install?

So it looks like since BOA 2.2 this should be easy, anything under /var/www/www54 should run 5.4?

I have php 5.3 and 5.4 installed, using _PHP_MULTI_INSTALL="5.3 5.4" option. The service exists (/etc/init.d/php54-fpm) and is started.

I've place a Drupal 8 checkout in /var/www/www54/drupal8 and reloaded/restarted nginx and php54-fpm. When I visit the site I still get "Your PHP installation is too old. Drupal requires at least PHP 5.4.2."

Any hints please?
