Getting 503 with apache proxy_fcgi_module [SOLVED]

I'm using CentOS 9 Stream on a VM, trying to setup my apache server to be able to show php content on the web. The server works fine when its just html, but I'm getting these errors (503 in the browser) when I try it with php. My httpd.conf is basically the bare minimum to run a server with virtual hosts, and the only thing I added was the SetHandler for the php files. I'm not very familar with php, but from my understanding what it does is when the server gets a requiest for a php file it calls the php-fpm service to handle it.

Both the httpd and php-fpm services are running and I set the SELinux bool httpd_can_network_connect to 1 as I read this could result in a 503.

/var/log/httpd/error.log says:

[proxy:error] [pid 4807:tid 4812] (111)Connection refused: AH00957: FCGI: attempt to connect to [::]:8000 (*) failed
[proxy_fcgi:error] [pid 4807:tid 4812] [client 192.168.122.1:60494] AH01079: failed to make connection to backend: (null)

my httpd.conf:

            SetHandler "proxy:fcgi:/run/php-fpm/www.sock"
        </FilesMatch>
</VirtualHost>

and my www.conf:

listen = /run/php-fpm/www.sock
listen.owner = apache
listen.group = apache
listen.allowed_clients = 127.0.0.1

SOLUTION: As AlexD pointed out the problem was apache was trying to connent through localhost instead of the socket. I was able to make it work by either changing my config files to listen on 127.0.0.1:9000 If I want to use the unix socket I have to change the httpd.conf like this:

<Proxy "unix:/run/php-fpm/www.sock|fcgi://php-fpm">
   ProxySet disablereuse=off
</Proxy>

<FilesMatch \.php$>
   SetHandler proxy:fcgi://php-fpm
</FilesMatch>
