nginx from https://launchpad.net/~hda-me/+archive/ubuntu/nginx-stable and php7.1

Question

Hi,I was testing nginx with dynamic modules from https://launchpad.net/~hda-me/+archive/ubuntu/nginx-stable but I could not get php7.1-fmp wordking. Nginx works, modules works but not php. I am not to knowledgeable is server management.I followed this tutorial except for nginx that I installed from ppa and mariadb instead of mysql:https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-linux-nginx-mysql-php-lemp-stack-in-ubuntu-16-04 Something is missing but I don’t know what? Thank you

@stephgiguere Generally this section: location ~ \.php$ { include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf; fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.1-fpm.sock; } … would look something like: location ~ \.php$ { include fastcgi_params; fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.1-fpm.sock; } The difference being we’re swapping snippets/fastcgi-php.conf with fastcgi_params. Not all NGINX repositories have a snippets directory that contains blocks of code. Even if they do, not all of them contain everything that’s needed (at least, that has been my experience). … If you don’t mind trying something different, and you have a few extra minutes, I wrote and installer for NGINX that handles a source installation hands-free. It includes HTTP2, Brotli, a few modules, and multiple example configurations with it. If you run: cd /opt Then: git clone https://github.com/serveradminsh/installers.git Followed by: cd installers/nginx chmod +x installer.sh And finally: ./installer.sh You’ll have a fully configured and optimized NGINX setup with a working PHP configuration that you can copy from the ./installers/nginx/examples directory. Within this directory there’s a php directory which contains a php.conf file. That’s the one you need and to set it up, all you’d do is: cp installers/nginx/examples/php/php.conf /etc/nginx/sites/yourdomain.conf Then: nano /etc/nginx/sites/yourdomain.conf … and configure it to your liking. There’s also examples on how to setup SSL, Load Balancing, Proxy, and others. The installer will take about 20-30 minutes as this is a source compile, not a stock repo package. It’s detailed and sets up everything you’d have to do a source compile to setup. A systemd service is also included, so NGINX is controlled using: systemctl start nginx systemctl restart nginx systemctl stop nginx The only thing I’d recommend doing is: 1). Run the installer on a fresh Ubuntu 16.04 droplet, or;2). Run: apt-get -y remove nginx apt-get -y purge nginx rm -rf /etc/nginx This wipes your current NGINX installation, so if you need to backup anything, do it before the above commands. That said, the installer has all the examples you need to get things working and I will be more than happy to help should you have any questions. As for the examples directory, most are setup so that you only need to change the server_name directive. The only other thing you may need to modify is the fastcgi_pass directive since you’re using sockets instead of TCP, or you can modify: /etc/php/7.1/fpm/pool.d/www.conf and change listen to use 127.0.0.1:9000 and restart php-fpm and the example I provided will work without any changes other than those for your domain.

Thank youDoes your compile include naxsi?

@stephgiguere Ideally, if your database is more than a few MB’s in size, you want to use MySQL’s CLI interface to do a restore. A web-based interface, such as phpMyAdmin or Adminer should be able to handle it, though it’s not the best tool for the job. That being said, if you want to use a web-based interface to do the restore, you’ll need to modify one more variable, and that’d be client_max_body_size 50m;, which can be found in: /etc/nginx/config/nginx.conf You’ll need to change the current 50m to match that of your php.ini, or change them all to a value a little over, such as 64m. You’d then want to reload NGINX using: systemctl reload nginx If you want to do this using MySQL’s CLI, you’d use: mysql -u dbuser -p dbname < db.sql Where dbuser is the database username, -p will prompt you for the password, dbname is the name of the database, and db.sql is the SQL dump file that you created. To run that command, you’d login as root using SSH, or your sudo user. You don’t need to actually enter the MySQL CLI, just change the placeholders and run the command as-is.
