Antzi's questions

I want to resize the main partition of my Linux VM.

1. I added space through ESXi interface
2. Booted on GParted and resized the partitions

However, the system does recognize the changes on disk increase but not the one on partition increase:

I looked up for a few tutorials but they don't really seems to apply.

Here are some output:

{root@tuc[antoine]}df -h

/dev/sda1                 236M  215M  8.6M  97% /boot

And with fdisk:

{root@tuc[antoine]}fdisk /dev/sda

Command (m for help): p

How to make it so that ubuntu will expand to the full size available ?

I'm trying to migrate a service from a server to another.

It's a simple php app.

On the first server (Apache) I could request a JSON in the following way:

my.vhost.myDomain.tld/apps?query=toto&params=aparam

On the second (nginx), I should be able to do it the same way:

my.vhost.myOtherDomain.tld/apps?query=toto&params=aparam

Both applications include an index.php that is served correctly by both web servers. However, the /apps? produce a 404 on nginx.

My guess is that Apache is doing some magic finding a php file to process the query. However, I'm quite a noob with this tools and I don't understand what is exactly happening on the Apache server and how to configure nginx to reproduce the same behavior ...

Is index.php file processed as input?

So far I tried to specify my.vhost.myOtherDomain.tld/index.php/apps?query=toto&params=aparam with little success.
And to explore Apache configuration files without much help.
