So long story short I have registered a new Debian 7 VPS w/ OVH and have been attempting to install nginx w/ PHP and MySQL.
Everything seems to have gone ok, with the exception of the PHP not functioning.
I initially used the following guide:
https://www.digitalocean.com/communi...n-ubuntu-12-04
However, I get the distinct impression something has gone off in this portion:
Code:
[...]
server {
listen 80;
root /usr/share/nginx/www;
index index.php index.html index.htm;
server_name example.com;
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.html;
}
error_page 404 /404.html;
error_page 500 502 503 504 /50x.html;
location = /50x.html {
root /usr/share/nginx/www;
}
# pass the PHP scripts to FastCGI server listening on the php-fpm socket
location ~ \.php$ {
try_files $uri =404;
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;
fastcgi_index index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
include fastcgi_params;
}
}
[...]
Add index.php to the index line.
Change the server_name from local host to your domain name or IP address (replace the example.com in the configuration)
Change the correct lines in “location ~ \.php$ {“ section <- Unsure what needs to be added or changed.
Save and Exit
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
