Adding PHP to NGINX server

+
+ +
+
+ +
+
+

PHP is one of the highest used programming languages for websites, and it allows you to add practically any functionality you'd ever want to your sites.

+ +

Install

+ 
sudo apt install php-fpm php-mysql
+ +

Um, I forgor

+ 
sudo nano /etc/php//fpm/php.ini
+

Comment the cgi.fix_pathinfo line, to look like below

+ 
#set cgi.fix_pathinfo = 0
+ +

Add to Website's NGINX conf

+

For each website you want to use php, you'll need to edit the confige file

+ 
sudo vim /etc/nginx/sites-available/
+

The following code needs adding within the XXX block

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

This will use nginx's fastcgi-php.conf snippet which is more secure by deafult than many other php/nginx configs because it 404s if the files doesn't exist. Read Neal Poole'sDon't trust the tutorials for more info.

+ +

Reload NGINX

+ 
sudo systemctl reload nginx
+ +

Test it works

+

Create a PHP file e.g. filename.php in the website's directory, and add the snippet below into it

+
+

Go to that webpage in your browser e.g. domain.co.uk/filename.php, and if php is working you should see a dump of your PHP's version, headers, etc.

+ +

Make nginx use index.php as homepage/root

+

Now we'll set nginx to load up index.php as the root of the website, if it exists. Open the site's config with an editor

+ 
vim /etc/nginx/sites-available/
+

Change the index line to rad as below. This will then tell the server to load index.php, and if it doesn't exists, load index.html in it's stead

+ 
index index.php index.html

To run adminer, you'll need a webserver with php set up. Thankfully I'm a great guy, and have written about these topics before.
