nGINX Configuration for custom PHP Framework

BharatB

So I'm having a hard time with nginx rewrite wondering if anyone could help so this is the situation

Directory Structure




base .htaccess




public .htaccess

How do I write my nGINX config so that the above works

You're probably looking for the try_files directive. You don't need mod_rewrite for it.

Tried that not able to figure it out.

Derek

the first example just rewrites everything to /public/, so when you configure nginx, just set the root /path/to/public/

this is the second one that should be

rewrite ^/(.)$ /index.php break;


So all together, after server{ should look like;


location / {
root /path/to/public;
rewrite ^/(.)$ /index.php break;
location ~* ^.+.(jpg|jpeg|gif|css|js)$ {
root /path/to/public;
}
}


Edit: This isn't formatting nicely above, Pastebin: http://pastebin.com/YNHVQ4Kb

Like others have said, you really just need to set the public directory as your root. Then use: try_files $uri $uri/ index.php;

I got the first part solved only 1 thing is left im not able to access assets folder in public folder for some reason its throwing a 404 error.

BharatB


server {
listen 80;
server_name some.domain;
root /usr/share/nginx/html/public;
index index.php;
location / {
rewrite ^/(.)$ /index.php break;
include fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_intercept_errors off;
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
}
location /assets {
try_files $uri $uri/ $document_root;
}
}

Edit: Solved it. So now please tell me if the above way is correct or if I should make any changes.

If all you're even going to do is re-direct to index.php in that location block then maybe get rid of the rewrite?

Also you could configure FPM to listen on a socket.

location / { include fastcgi_params; fastcgi_intercept_errors off; fastcgi_pass /path/to/unix/socket; fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /path/to/index.php; }

Since you're here could you tell why nginx can't open ports above 1024 ?

SolusVM

Not sure on that one. It usually can. Anything in the logs etc? Firewall, selinux?

You mean below 1024, right? That's because you need elevated (read: root) permissions in order to open a port lower than that.

This is the most simple option.

My problem is quite opposite to that post he's not able to open anything except port 80 81 or 8080 for nginx

That's err.. Odd.. Are you sure the port you're trying to bind to isn't occupied by an existing service or blocked by your firewall?

iptables turned off all ports freed idk what the fuck is wrong and beating my head for past few hours ( successfully introduced phpseclib into the framework in meantime ).

Would you mind pastebinning your Nginx config?

What was the error you were hit with?

BharatB

@0xdragon said:

When I change port to anything for eg 2081 or 2082 or any other port says nginx bind failed and error is permission denied

wych

SELinux?

BharatB

@wych said:
SELinux?

Disabled, setenforce=0 also done

BharatB

So anyone else can suggest anything regarding to ports issue

Nomad

netstat -plnt | grep PORTNUMBERHERE

Try this one. Never had any problems with assigning ports to nginx.

Try and see if there's an app using that port.

I've already checked theres no app using the port im trying to assign, check this

2015/09/27 04:41:07 [emerg] 3781#0: bind() to 0.0.0.0:2080 failed (13: Permission denied)

Maybe this can help: http://serverfault.com/a/566320

If the above doesn't help, try setting CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE to the nginx binary, something like:

$ sudo setcap 'cap_net_bind_service=+ep' /usr/bin/nginx

(fix the nginx path, naturally).

Edit #1: fixed the link.

Edit #2: added info about setcap

Try not use "default_server"

@rokok said:

Yea I know its just home server so just used it so I can access over ip also.

rokok

On some nginx mainline version, the "default_server" can cause problem if you have multiple blocks or conflict with other nginx module you compile from scratch, you need to understand the server order if use default_server.

If that happened in your case, all traffic will through from port 81
