Hey TTT,

would you mind to explain why you are not using "proxy pass" instead of fastcgi_pass? Is there any difference between those two?

im trying to use nginx container as a reverse proxy that sends all php request to wordpress container with php-fpm (they are in the same network)

If you may or not - thanks!
And good video!

Keep seeing: server_name _; What does that mean? Does the underscore do something? Is it here to remind you to set it?

Hey, is any way to log php errors to a local file with nginx?, I can't see any php log when an error happens

[BlueTeamBorja]

I can't connect to the DB through php installed with nginx on my website. Records are not displayed. I also installed php-fpm. Thankx

[PlayhouseMediaGroup]

Thank you, Tony, very helpful. If possible can you also o a tutorial on creating a server on GCP for hosting and managing multiple websites with maybe an FTP software or any website management software.

A video for hosting a node website on GCP Virtual Machine.

Ok thanks for vid that was easy but right now i have a problem with prestashop and import products... when im importing from csv file i have an error after 25 products was imported file have 80-100 products can you lead me to the configuration were can i fix it?

[Oswee]

Would like to see HAProxy node + TLS terminantion <-> Nginx (web server only mode) node <-> PHP-FPM node configuration. + passing headers down to the PHP-FPM. With "node" i mean separate servers and not the processes on the same server.

[LegendaryVenom]

now i need the SSL, i dont know where to put the directives

[bluefire]

Could you please check nginx 1.20.1 and php8.0-fpm ? i try to install it, but it des not work

[mitaka_]

If anybody else still had errors like me, you can probably fix it by putting this line on the top of the file, not inside any of the namespaces (not sure what the http, server, events things are called):

user www-data www-data;

this executes all the nginx operations and stuff with the permissions of www-data which is the user used for web developement usually.
if you have set your user/group to something else change it accordingly in the user directive in your nginx config file

its not best practice to set it as your own user as it might mess things up and even if you get it up and running--if you're not careful youre personal files such as the ones from Downloads/ can be accessed

[andresdemillos]

Thank you so much again, great video, first i was deploying Django, now i'm on php, would you recomend deploy a server in apache2 or nginx?.

[sirajul-anik]
