nginx php5-fpm failed (2: No such file or directory) - zend-framework

Question

QUESTION: What am I missing or doing wrong?
I'm trying to migrate fully functional Zend Framework application from Apache2 with mod_php5 to nginx with php5-fpm. I get this kind of errors:
2012/06/27 12:08:04 [error] 1986#0: *1 open() "/var/www/public/sales/live-trials-json" failed (2: No such file or directory), client: *.*.*.*, server: www.mydomain.com, request: "POST /sales/live-trials-json HTTP/1.1", host: "www.mydomain.com", referrer: "https://www.mydomain.com/sales/live-trials"

Answer 1

Alright, after long and exhausting struggles, I've managed to figure out this madness. So, I've started everything from scratch and here is what I've learned:
Entire weirdness is somewhere in location ~* ... { ... }, so whoever have better experience, please explain why :-) Meanwhile I'll manage assets and caching on application layer.
My functional configuration file looks like this:
server {
listen 80;
listen 443 default ssl;
server_name www.mydomain.com;
root /var/www/public;
ssl_certificate /etc/nginx/ssl/mydomain.crt;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/nginx/ssl/mydomain.key;
access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log;
error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log error;
index index.php index.phtml index.html;
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php;
}
location ~ \.php$ {
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
fastcgi_intercept_errors on;
include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
}
}
Thanks for trying, especially #sarnold and #sergei-lomakov!

Your nginx configuration is little wrong.
Because agree with your rules, nginx tries to access /var/www/public/sales/live-trials-json
which doesn't exist.
Because I don't know which endpoints your application use, I suggest you to make two nginx locations. First , for all static files (with regexp) create this location:
location ~* ^.+.(css|js|jpeg|jpg|gif|png|ico|xml) {
access_log off;
expires 30d;
}
All another queries should be proxied to apache:
location / {
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
fastcgi_intercept_errors on;
include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
}
Make little change with this rule:
location ~* ^/(favicon.ico|robots.txt)$ {
access_log off;
log_not_found off;
}
Of course, you can leave ".ht settings" untouched:
location ~ /\.ht {
deny all;
}
So, Final config will be:
server {
listen 80;
listen 443 default ssl;
server_name www.mydomain.com;
root /var/www/public;
ssl_certificate /etc/nginx/ssl/mydomain.crt;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/nginx/ssl/mydomain.key;
access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log;
error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log error;
index index.php index.phtml index.html;
location ~* ^/(favicon.ico|robots.txt)$ {
access_log off;
log_not_found off;
}
location ~* ^.+.(css|js|jpeg|jpg|gif|png|ico|xml) {
access_log off;
expires 30d;
}
location ~ /\.ht {
deny all;
}
location / {
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
# I'm not sure that this setting is needed:
# fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
fastcgi_intercept_errors on;
include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
}
}

As you noted, your problem is with
location ~* ^.+.(css|js|jpeg|jpg|gif|png|ico|xml) {
access_log off;
expires 30d;
}
This matches your POST uri of /sales/live-trials-json because it hasn't been anchored to the end of the uri path, and . matches any character. This means that '-js' matches. To fix this, you just need to add a \ (to match a literal '.') and a $ (to anchor the match at the end of the uri path):
location ~* \.(css|js|jpeg|jpg|gif|png|ico|xml)$ {
access_log off;
expires 30d;
}
