The “location” here is /test.php/images/test/000001

It doesn’t match that one.

It doesn’t match that one.

So fastcgi\_split\_path\_info is not used.

As a short-term test, to confirm that the directives act as you expect,  
change this location definition to

location ~ php

Then when you are happy that you understand what everything is doing,  
change it to something that is right for your environment.

(Perhaps some variation on “.php($|/)” will be right for you; or  
perhaps  
nesting it inside a non-regex location.)

Good luck,
