Hi folks.
I’ve been tearing what little hair I have left out trying to find the
problem with this.
nginx version 0.7.61 installed from Jeff W.s site. On Ubuntu 9.4
Jackalope.
/etc/nginx/nginx.conf - standard, as issued. #
/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default contains
server {
listen 80;
server_name localhost ;
access_log /var/log/nginx/localhost.access.log;
location / {
root /var/www/nginx-default;
index index.html index.htm;
}
location ~ .php$ {
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
fastcgi_index index.php;
include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
}
}
/etc/nginx/fastcgi_params contains
fastcgi_param GATEWAY_INTERFACE CGI/1.1;
fastcgi_param QUERY_STRING $query_string;
fastcgi_param REQUEST_METHOD $request_method;
fastcgi_param CONTENT_TYPE $content_type;
fastcgi_param CONTENT_LENGTH $content_length;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_NAME $fastcgi_script_name;
fastcgi_param REQUEST_URI $request_uri;
fastcgi_param DOCUMENT_URI $document_uri;
fastcgi_param DOCUMENT_ROOT $document_root;
fastcgi_param SERVER_PROTOCOL $server_protocol;
fastcgi_param SERVER_SOFTWARE nginx/$nginx_version;
fastcgi_param REMOTE_ADDR $remote_addr;
fastcgi_param REMOTE_PORT $remote_port;
fastcgi_param SERVER_ADDR $server_addr;
fastcgi_param SERVER_PORT $server_port;
fastcgi_param SERVER_NAME $server_name;
PHP only, required if PHP was built with --enable-force-cgi-redirect
fastcgi_param REDIRECT_STATUS 200;
Symptoms
http://localhost/missing.htm - error 404 correct
http://localhost - serves index.htm correct
http://localhost/present.htm - served correctly
http://localhost/present.php - can give two errors
if fastcgi gateway is running I get “No input file spcified.”
if the fastcgi gateway is not up, I get Bad Gateway,
So I know the gateway is running, I telnet’ed into it - and it kicked me
out.
if I run the present.php file on the command line it runs as expected.
I’m sure it is something so very simple that I’m kick myself - I just
can’t see what.
Any help with this much appreciated.

either add another
root /var/www/nginx-default; to your location ~ .php$ block or move
the root directive into the server block instead of location /

Try using something like:
location ~ .(php|html)$ {
fastcgi_pass localhost:yourPort;
include fastcgi_params;
add aditional parameters only after the include, so they’ll override
fastcgi_index index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME
/path/to/your/docroot$fastcgi_script_name;
fastcgi_param DOCUMENT_ROOT /path/to/your/docroot;
fastcgi_intercept_errors on; # for easier debug
}
Mainly, the document_root param should be afer the include, otherwise
you’re using your server’s doc_root instead of your site’s doc_root. I
think…

No, it’s enough to add “root” in
location ~ \.php$ {
root /path/to/your/docroot;
...
Thanks for your input guys. All is working fine now.
What is odd is that I am sure I simply removed comments from the
standard (0.6.whatever Ubuntu) file,
and that is what had root and index inside location /
Oh well. Thanks again

someone should save this answer as template.
Anyone have any ideas about this one?
Thanks

I’m on Windows XP. Not sure if that makes a diff or not. I can’t
figure out how to get my document root outside of the nginx folder.

Hi dmikester1
I’m reposting the reply - it appear the O/P didn’t see it and neither
did I.
You put a root stanza in the config file - typically inside the server
{} brackets - but see
http://wiki.nginx.org/NginxHttpCoreModule#root
On windows, I believe you need to convert the file names from - for
example - d:\websites\asite
into d/websites/asite if nginx runs under cygwin
Regards
Ian
Andy if nginx does not run under cygwin?
Thanks
Mike
