Install PHP-FPM
To install PHP-FPM, open terminal and type in these commands. We will configure the details of nginx and php details in the next step:
sudo apt-get install php5-fpmConfigure php
We need to make one small change in the php configuration.Open up php.ini:
sudo nano /etc/php5/fpm/php.iniFind the line, cgi.fix_pathinfo=1, and change the 1 to 0.
cgi.fix_pathinfo=0If this number is kept as 1, the php interpreter will do its best to process the file that is as near to the requested file as possible. This is a possible security risk. If this number is set to 0, conversely, the interpreter will only process the exact file path—a much safer alternative. Save and Exit. We need to make another small change in the php5-fpm configuration.Open up www.conf:
sudo nano /etc/php5/fpm/pool.d/www.confFind the line, listen = 127.0.0.1:9000, and change the 127.0.0.1:9000 to /var/run/php5-fpm.sock.
listen = /var/run/php5-fpm.sockSave and Exit.
Restart php-fpm:
sudo service php5-fpm restart
