Answer 1

You need to set a document root with the root directive, either within your location ~ \.php$ block or inherited from the outer server block.

The solution may be to move the root c:/Users/Youri/PhpstormProjects; line out of your location / block into a position above it.

Usually fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name; is the correct method to specify the full path to the script, whereas SCRIPT_NAME is usually just the last element.

Like this:

server {
    ...

    root   c:/Users/Youri/PhpstormProjects;

    location / {
        index  index.html index.htm index.php;
    }

    location ~ \.php$ {
        fastcgi_pass  127.0.0.1:9000;
        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
        include       fastcgi_params;
    }
}

Set root directive with absolute path in windows PC. Check for the case or any typing mistake in the path. Reload the nginx process.
