Make Virtual Host in Engine X (nginx)

Since last time I install php-fpm in my freebsd box I still looking way to make virtualhost. I think its not easy to make vhost in nginx but I’m wrong 🙂

Just add :

server {

directive

}

will add new vhost.

Full sample from my vhost :

server {
        listen          80;
        server_name     sandbox.digitalfusi.com;

        location / {
            index index.php index.html;
            root  /usr/local/www/nginx/sandbox;
        }
            location ~ \.php$ {
           fastcgi_pass    127.0.0.1:9000;
           fastcgi_index   index.php;
          fastcgi_param     SCRIPT_FILENAME
  /usr/local/www/nginx/sandbox$fastcgi_script_name;
           include      fastcgi_params;
           }

    }

another feature that I learn too is ‘autoindex’ since my friend need to list all files and directory if no index files exists.

For more fancy index I need to recompile it with fancyindex but I’m OK with it 🙂

Full sample of nginx.conf for two vhost with autouindex on and off can be download from here.
