For the love of nginx, I can't wrap my head around this issue.
Desired: I want two simple php projects (wordpress in the long haul) in two sub locations under one server block. Side note: These projects reside in two different directories on the server deployed with capistrano.
Problem: I either end up with a 404, 403 or a direct octet stream download of the index.php. On the latter I seem to hit the correct index.php but it is not passed to the php-fpm block. php-fpm is working and not the issue (tested in other serverblock without sublocations)
I have looked all over the web and have tried gazillions of "working" configs, but its not coming together.
Plan: Below you see a working nginx vhost, hitting the right index.html files in the correct alias directories. Thus I am halfway there.
With your help I would like to adapt the config below, to change the index to index.php and get php working on location /staging and /production.
In the location /production you see one config (commented out) how I tried to get php working.
server {
listen 82;
listen [::]:82;
server_name nginx-web.ch;
access_log /var/log/nginx/nginx-web_access.log;
error_log /var/log/nginx/nginx-web_error.log;
location /staging {
alias /var/www/nginx-web1/current;
index index.html
add_header X-debug-message "Location web1";
}
location /production {
alias /var/www/nginx-web/current;
index index.html
add_header X-debug-message "Location web";
#try_files $uri $uri/ /production/index.php;
#location ~ \.php$ {
# add_header X-debug-message "Location ~ php";
# try_files $uri =404;
# fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
# fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;
# fastcgi_index index.php;
# include fastcgi_params;
# fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
#}
}
}
Here is a working server block it tried to adapt for sublocations, without success :(
server {
listen 80;
listen [::]:80;
server_name testdev;
access_log /var/log/nginx/wp_access.log;
error_log /var/log/nginx/wp_error.log;
root /var/www;
index index.php;
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args;
}
location ~ \.php$ {
try_files $uri =404;
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;
fastcgi_index index.php;
include fastcgi_params;
}
}
UPDATE with WORKING CONFIG (gotta <3 serverfault/stackoverflow):
Here is the final working configuration, many thanks to @RichardSmith
server {
listen 82;
listen [::]:82;
server_name nginx-web.ch;
access_log /var/log/nginx/nginx-web_access.log;
error_log /var/log/nginx/nginx-web_error.log;
index index.php;
location ^~ /staging/ {
alias /var/www/nginx-web1/current/;
if (!-e $request_filename) { rewrite ^ /staging/index.php last; }
location ~ \.php$ {
if (!-f $request_filename) { return 404; }
include fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $request_filename;
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;
}
}
location /production {
alias /var/www/nginx-web/current;
if (!-e $request_filename) { rewrite ^ /production/index.php last; }
location ~ \.php$ {
if (!-f $request_filename) { return 404; }
include fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $request_filename;
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;
}
}
}
