The Problem

nginx works with static files (and Ruby), but will not execute PHP files. PHP runs fine from a command line.

On requesting a PHP file (such as http://wiki.makeyourlaws.org/phpinfo.php), here's what seems to be happening:

nginx receives the request
nginx forwards it to PHP-FPM
- This can be done one of two ways -- either via a UNIX pipe or via a port. I've tried both; currently using port, I think.
PHP never receives the request; the log file does not show it.
nginx somehow receives a success code, and logs the request as successful (http code 200) returning a result of zero bytes.
The web browser displays a blank page.

Notes

2012-06-21

Looks like the package "spawn-fcgi" may be the part of FastCGI that I need to install, extrapolating from this. Installing it...

Background

Distro: Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS

nginx was compiled from source; PHP5 was installed from standard Ubuntu packages.

File Locations

/opt/nginx/ - configuration and logging folders
- /opt/nginx/conf/nginx.conf - master config file
- /opt/nginx/conf/fastcgi.conf - FastCGI config file
- /opt/nginx/conf/scgi_params - Simple CGI config -- presumably not in use
/etc/php5/fpm/ - PHP-FPM configuration
- /etc/php5/fpm/pool.d/www.conf - config file to actually edit
