I tried to set a location similar as "Apache Alias" with Nginx but I don't able to process PHP script in this folder.
Here is my folder structure (for Dev environment):
/var/www
+- dev/public/ <-- This is my normal Web root : "/"
| +- assets/
| | +- app.css
| | +- app.js
| |
| +- index.php
| +- favicon.png
|
+- cut/public/ <-- This must like an "Apache Alias" : "/cut"
+- assets/
| +- app.css
| +- app.js
|
+- index.php
+- other_other_file.php (why not)
I've tried different solutions but none of them are working.
Here is my best Nginx configuration :
server {
listen 80;
server_name _;
root /var/www/dev/public/;
index index.php index.html;
autoindex on;
# Logs
rewrite_log on;
error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log;
access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log;
# Serving files
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ @php;
}
location /cut {
root /var/www/cut/public;
try_files $uri $uri/ @php;
}
# PHP
location @php {
rewrite ^(.*)/?$ /index.php$is_args$args last;
}
location ~* \.php(/|$) {
fastcgi_pass php:9000;
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.*)$;
fastcgi_param DOCUMENT_ROOT $document_root;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
include fastcgi_params;
}
}
With this one, all the content of my cut/public/
folder is redirected to the dev/public/index.php
and interpreted (cause of try_file
, I presume).
That is why your help would be welcome.
Final Solution
After the answer of @richard-smith, here's the implemented solution :
server {
listen 80;
server_name _;
root /var/www/dev/public/;
index index.php index.html;
error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log;
access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log;
location ^~ /cut {
rewrite ^/cut/?(.*)$ /cut/public/$1 last;
}
location ^~ /cut/public {
root /var/www/;
try_files $uri $uri/ /cut/index.php$is_args$args;
location ~* \.php(/|$) {
fastcgi_pass php:9000;
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.*)$;
fastcgi_param DOCUMENT_ROOT $document_root;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
include fastcgi_params;
}
}
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php$is_args$args;
}
location ~* \.php(/|$) {
fastcgi_pass php:9000;
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.*)$;
fastcgi_param DOCUMENT_ROOT $document_root;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
include fastcgi_params;
}
}
Create a PHP page in Nginx After the restart, PHP is fully enabled on Nginx. To prove this, create a PHP file in Nginx's /var/www/html folder and test to ensure the page renders properly on the server.
On a fresh installation of Nginx, the document root is located at /var/www/html . By following the prerequisite guides, however, you created a new document root, /var/www/ your_domain /html . You may have additional document roots as well.
root html defines the relative path, relative to the value of --prefix in Nginx configuration. In your case, the value of --prefix is /usr/share/nginx . So, root html means, the directory named "html" inside /usr/share/nginx is parsed to serve the requested file (50x. html).
Running two PHP applications side-by-side, you either need a common document root, or you need two location ~* \.php
(or similar) blocks to ensure the correct SCRIPT_FILENAME
is sent to the fastcgi backend.
Use nested location
blocks to isolate the /cut
subdirectory, and use the ^~
modifier at the top level to avoid other top level regular expression location
blocks from interfering (see this documentation).
The alias
directive (see this documentation) is used to map /cut
to /var/www/cut/public
. The root
directive can only concatenate, which would make /var/www/cut/public/cut
(which you do not want).
However, I would not recommend using the alias
directive with the try_files
directive because of this long term issue.
So, a solution would be to silently rewrite /cut
to /cut/public
and use a value of root /var/www
.
For example:
location ^~ /cut {
rewrite ^/cut(.*)$ /cut/public$1 last;
}
location ^~ /cut/public {
root /var/www;
try_files $uri $uri/ /cut/index.php$is_args$args;
location ~* \.php(/|$) {
fastcgi_pass php:9000;
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.*)$;
include fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
}
}
