Hi Joss! <br> <br>Could you post your Nginx configuration? The location block should look something like: <br> <br><pre> <br> location ~ .php$ { <br> try_files $uri =404; <br> fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+.php)(/.+)$; <br> fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock; <br> fastcgi_index index.php; <br> include fastcgi_params; <br> } <br></pre> <br> <br>

HI Andrew , <br>please see below my Ngix configuration . <br> <br># pass the PHP scripts to FastCGI server listening on 127.0.0.1:9000 <br> # <br> #location ~ .php$ { <br> # fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+.php)(/.+)$; <br> # # NOTE: You should have “cgi.fix_pathinfo = 0;” in php.ini <br> # <br> try_files $uri =404; <br> # # With php5-cgi alone: <br> # fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000; <br> # # With php5-fpm: <br> # fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock; <br> # fastcgi_index index.php; <br> # include fastcgi_params; <br>
<br>is it correct ? looks the same to me , I am not sure . What do you think Andrew.

You need to uncomment the lines, as in delete the <strong>#</strong> at the beginning of each line. So it should look like this: <br><pre>#pass the PHP scripts to FastCGI server listening on 127.0.0.1:9000 <br> <br>location ~ .php$ { <br> fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+.php)(/.+)$; <br> # NOTE: You should have “cgi.fix_pathinfo = 0;” in php.ini <br> <br> try_files $uri =404; <br> # With php5-cgi alone: <br> fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000; <br> # With php5-fpm: <br> fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock; <br> fastcgi_index index.php; <br> include fastcgi_params; <br>}</pre>
