Error 500 about htmly

[oldgalileo]

Okay. So I fiddled with it a bit more. It seems that when I change the configuration to this:

server {
    listen 80;   # We're deliberately leaving this as-is to avoid conflict at the moment

    root /var/www;
    server_name example.com;

    location / {
    try_files $uri/ $uri /index.php?$query_string;
    }

    location ~ \.php$ {
        fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
        fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;
        fastcgi_index index.php;
        include fastcgi_params;
    }

    location /doc/ {
        alias /usr/share/doc/;
        autoindex on;
        allow 127.0.0.1;
        deny all;
    }

    location ~/\.ht {
        deny all;
    }

}

The things like /login and stuff work great. However going to simply example.com/ and gives me a 403. However reverting back to the previous one fixes it and reverses it. Going to example.com/index does work however. Gah.

Did you use the example Nginx config? I try using it and work fine, CentOS+Nginx.

server {
  listen 80;

  server_name example.com www.example.com;
  root /usr/share/nginx/html;

  access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log;
  error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log error;

  index index.php;

  location ~ /config/ {
     deny all;
  }

  location / {
    try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php;
  }

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

I will try it again, but it did not appear to work last time. Also, I am running on Ubuntu Server.

[oldgalileo]

Nope. Still a 403 when I go to example.com and a success when I go to example.com/index. Any other ideas?

EDIT: Wait. Actually, it's a 502 for example.com/index. Interesting.
EDIT 2: I can confirm it is not an issue with php5-fpm. I tested that and it just made things worse.

[ncang]

it's run on localhost ?

[oldgalileo]

Um. Yeah, I think so. I mean, I have a domain pointing to it, but yes. It is running on localhost I am pretty sure. How would I check?

EDIT: If you mean on my personal machine, no. I am running on a VPS.

[ncang]

i mean, make sure webserver (nginx) work in your localhost, & try htmly run well on locahost before pointing to domain,

[oldgalileo]

I would, but the testing environment wouldn't be the same. I am running Mac OS X and don't really have an option to install refit or whatever it is called.

[ncang]

try clear browser cache, or restart nginx 💨 , sorry if it does not help

[oldgalileo]

Sadly, I have tried both of those. If anyone else wants to chime on on successes with HTMLy and nginx, by all means.

[oldgalileo]

Ahah! Okay. I have figured it out and you should definitely add this to the README.

Here is the config that worked:

server {
  listen 80;

  server_name mc.snowcraft.in;
  root /var/www;

  access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log;
  error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log error;

  index index.php;

  location ~ /config/ {
     deny all;
  }

  location / {
    try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php;
  }

  location ~ .php$ {
    try_files $uri =404;
    fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
    fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;
    fastcgi_index index.php;
    include fastcgi_params;
  }
}

And that works with everything. The other thing is that you have to make sure that php5-fpm was set up properly. My issue was that it was running on the sock, while I was telling it to listen on 127.0.0.1:9000. The two need to be the same in both files, and for me, the IP based one didn't work at all. So yeah. Wooo! It works!
