I'm using Ubuntu 18.04.6 LTS and I used the following commands to install php8.0

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:sergey-dryabzhinsky/php80

sudo apt-get install php8

after running php -v it's running the following version: PHP 8.0.24-SergeyD/2.3 (cli) ( NTS )

When I check in /var/run/php/ I can only see the following .sock files:

php7.2-fpm.sock

php7.2-fpm.pid

Why is the .sock file missing? How can I install it?

Support for Ubuntu 18.04 was removed from Ondřej Surý's PPA on June 15, 2023 as that version of Ubuntu is no longer supported.

If you really must use PHP 8 on an Ubuntu 18.04 server, then your only semi-supported way forward would be to use Docker containers. However, if Docker is no longer making their tools available for 18.04, then you'll need to consider updating from 18.04 to something newer.

You don't install it - it is created automatically when PHP-FPM is run. It is created in the location defined in the FPM config.

The valid use-cases for running multiple PHP versions on the same host are very rare. Keeping an unsupported running is not one of them.
