I'm trying to setup a wordpress server, but before that I need to get PHP working. Currently I have installed and configured nginx and php 7.3, but the php is not rendering, it is just showing text.
Main Issue:
[root@a-knapsack-sav ~]# cat /usr/share/nginx/html/info.php
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
[root@a-knapsack-sav ~]# curl http://localhost/info.php
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
Obviously I should expect to see some content from the above, but I'm not. The following is all of the setup that I've done. Hopefully someone can see this and point out my likely omission.
What OS are you using?
[root@a-knapsack-sav nginx]# rpm -q centos-release
centos-release-7-6.1810.2.el7.centos.x86_64
Is nginx even installed?
[root@a-knapsack-sav nginx]# nginx -v
nginx version: nginx/1.15.12
Is php even installed?
[root@a-knapsack-sav nginx]# php -v

Where is nginx installed?

Is php-fpm even running?

Did you edit you php.ini?
Only the cgi.fix_pathinfo for security.
[root@a-knapsack-sav nginx]# cat /etc/php.ini | grep cgi.fix
; cgi.fix_pathinfo provides *real* PATH_INFO/PATH_TRANSLATED support for CGI. PHP's
; http://php.net/cgi.fix-pathinfo
cgi.fix_pathinfo=0
Did you update php's conf settings to for nginx?
I think so.
[root@a-knapsack-sav ~]# cat /etc/php-fpm.d/www.conf | grep listen
; - 'listen' (unixsocket)
; 'ip.add.re.ss:port' - to listen on a TCP socket to a specific IPv4 address on
; '[ip:6:addr:ess]:port' - to listen on a TCP socket to a specific IPv6 address on
; 'port' - to listen on a TCP socket to all addresses
; '/path/to/unix/socket' - to listen on a unix socket.
listen = /var/run/php-fpm/php-fpm.sock
; Set listen(2) backlog.
;listen.backlog = 511
listen.owner = nobody
listen.group = nobody
;listen.mode = 0660
; When set, listen.owner and listen.group are ignored
;listen.acl_users = apache,nginx
;listen.acl_groups =
; PHP FCGI (5.2.2+). Makes sense only with a tcp listening socket. Each address
listen.allowed_clients = 127.0.0.1
; listen queue - the number of request in the queue of pending
; connections (see backlog in listen(2));
; max listen queue - the maximum number of requests in the queue
; listen queue len - the size of the socket queue of pending connections;
; listen queue: 0
; max listen queue: 1
; listen queue len: 42
[root@a-knapsack-sav ~]# cat /etc/php-fpm.d/www.conf | grep nginx
user = nginx
group = nginx
;listen.acl_users = apache,nginx
Did you update nginx's conf properly? As far as I know to....
[root@a-knapsack-sav ~]# cat /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf
server {
listen 80;
# listen [::]:80;
server_name A.B.C.D;
root /usr/share/nginx/html;
index index.php index.html index.htm;
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
}
error_page 404 /404.html;
error_page 500 502 503 504 /50x.html;
location = /50x.html {
root /usr/share/nginx/html;
}
location ~* \.php$ {
try_files $uri =404;
fastcgi_index index.php;
include fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php-fpm/php-fpm.sock;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
# fastcgi_param SCRIPT_NAME $fastcgi_script_name;
}
# location ~ /.ht {
# deny all;
# }
}
Do you have your info.php file in the correct place?
Yezzir.
[root@a-knapsack-sav ~]# ls /usr/share/nginx/html
50x.html index.html info.php
What about your nginx.conf?
[root@a-knapsack-sav ~]# cat /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
user nginx;
worker_processes 1;
error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log warn;
pid /var/run/nginx.pid;
events {
worker_connections 1024;
}
http {
include /etc/nginx/mime.types;
default_type application/octet-stream;
log_format main '$remote_addr - $remote_user [$time_local] "$request" '
'$status $body_bytes_sent "$http_referer" '
'"$http_user_agent" "$http_x_forwarded_for"';
access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log main;
sendfile on;
#tcp_nopush on;
keepalive_timeout 65;
#gzip on;
include /etc/nginx/conf.d/*.conf;
include /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/*.conf;
server_names_hash_bucket_size 64;
}
What about your sites-available conf? I don't know if this is needed but I tried it anways.
[root@a-knapsack-sav ~]# cat /etc/nginx/sites-available/default.conf
server {
listen 80;
server_name A.B.C.D;
root /usr/share/nginx/html;
index index.php index.html index.htm;
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
}
error_page 404 /404.html;
error_page 500 502 503 504 /50x.html;
location = /50x.html {
root /usr/share/nginx/html;
}
location ~ .php$ {
try_files $uri =404;
include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php-fpm/php-fpm.sock;
fastcgi_index index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
}
# location ~ /.ht {
# deny all;
# }
}
Did you forget to link sites-enabled and sites-available? Nope :)
[root@a-knapsack-sav ~]# ls -lrt /etc/nginx/sites-enabled
total 0
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 39 May 3 12:40 default.conf -> /etc/nginx/sites-available/default.conf
I hope this is everything. I think this is everything I've done. The index.html loads when I curl http://localhost but as shown above the info.php is not rendered when called. I think, I've set this up almost correct, but I'm pretty sure I missed something. Please let me know if something seems off. I tried to follow https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-linux-nginx-mysql-php-lemp-stack-on-centos-7 (mysql is on another server). Also if there is any configuration that I need to change so that curl http://A.B.C.D doesn't hang and returns like curl http://localhost, I'd appreciate it. Thanks :)
Edit:
What is your entire config?
[root@a-knapsack-sav ~]# nginx -T
