Hello,
Our client have NGINX running on ubuntu, the main site is running wordpress perfectly in www.domain.com, but now we installed another PHP app in a folder /app, so when visiting www.domain.com/app i can see all the content from the app, but cant execute PHP code, so inside the app all the code is in this format:
<? echo $semana_actual[‘total’] ?>
We are using this setup:
# You may add here your
# server {
# ...
# }
# statements for each of your virtual hosts to this file
##
# You should look at the following URL's in order to grasp a solid understanding
# of Nginx configuration files in order to fully unleash the power of Nginx.
# http://wiki.nginx.org/Pitfalls
# http://wiki.nginx.org/QuickStart
# http://wiki.nginx.org/Configuration
#
# Generally, you will want to move this file somewhere, and start with a clean
# file but keep this around for reference. Or just disable in sites-enabled.
#
# Please see /usr/share/doc/nginx-doc/examples/ for more detailed examples.

Everything looks ok, but this looks redundant, try removing it and reloading nginx:
location /app {
try_files $uri $uri/ /app/index.php?q=$uri&$args;
}
Everything seems OK.
You may check /etc/php5/fpm/php.ini’s short_open_tag config value.
It should be On for php short tag to work.
If it is correct, you can try to override access_log inside fpm block.
location ~ \.php$ {
try_files $uri =404;
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;
fastcgi_index index.php;
include fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_read_timeout 300;
access_log /somewhere/writable/for/www-data/php-access.log;
}
After that access a php file and a non php under the app folder and also the root folder. If there is no log entry in php-access.log, nginx is not redirecting php request to fpm.
root@nginx:~# ls -al /var/www/html/app
