- The problem is described in the error message: "Your PHP installation appears to be missing the MySQL extension which is required by WordPress." Only your host can tell which extension is missing and resolve it. – Jacob Peattie Commented Apr 19, 2020 at 14:51

Reset to default 0I ran into the same problem just now, when I upgraded to PHP 7.4 & removed the older version.

location ~* \.php$ {
fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.4-fpm.sock;
