How to get PHP working after LEMP with 16.04 installation? I get error 404 even with info.php file.

Question

I am getting the same error when trying to load the info.php file and have been trying to solve it for hours but can’t seem to find a solution.

I installed LEMP with 16.04 but it seems hard to find why my php is not working.

My nginx sites-available file looks like this:

server { listen 80; listen [::]:80;

    server_name website.com www.website.com;

    location / {
            root /var/www/website.com/html;
    index index.html index.htm index.php index.nginx-debian.html;
            try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
    }

    location ~ \.php$ {
    include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
    fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock;
}

location ~ /\.ht {
    deny all;


    }

}

server { listen 443; ssl on; # ssl_certificate ssl_certificate /etc/nginx/cert_chain.crt; # ssl_certificate_key ssl_certificate_key /root/website.com.key;

            server_name website.com website.com;
            access_log /var/log/nginx/nginx.vhost.access.log;
            error_log /var/log/nginx/nginx.vhost.error.log;
    location / {

            root /var/www/website.com/html;
    index index.php  index.html index.htm index.nginx-debian.html;

    }

location ~ .php$ { include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf; fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock; }

location ~ /\.ht {
    deny all;


            }

}

I found and resolved the issue, I moved ``` root /var/www/website.com/html; index index.html index.htm index.php index.nginx-debian.html;

server { listen 80; listen [::]:80;

    root /var/www/example.com/html;
    index index.html index.htm index.php index.nginx-debian.html;

    server_name example.com www.example.com;

    location / {

    try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
    }

    error_page 404 /404.html;
    error_page 500 502 503 504 /50x.html;
    location = /50x.html {
            root /usr/share/nginx/html;

    }

    location ~ \.php$ {
    include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
    fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock;
	}



	}


	server {
    listen 443;
    ssl on;
            # ssl_certificate
            ssl_certificate /etc/nginx/cert_chain.crt;
            # ssl_certificate_key
            ssl_certificate_key /root/example.com.key;

             root /var/www/example.com/html;
    index index.html index.htm index.php index.nginx-debian.html;

            server_name example.com www.example.com;
            access_log /var/log/nginx/nginx.vhost.access.log;
            error_log /var/log/nginx/nginx.vhost.error.log;
    location / {
             try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
    }


	error_page 404 /404.html;
    error_page 500 502 503 504 /50x.html;
    location = /50x.html {
            root /usr/share/nginx/html;

    }

    location ~ \.php$ {
    include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
    fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock;
	}



}

You need first to enable this site by creating a symbolic link for this site in sites-enabled directory

use this command to achieve this:

sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/<sitename> /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/<sitename>

then restart nginx: sudo service nginx restart

Hope this helps
