PHP-FPM and NGINX
+

Since PHP 5.3.3, the PHP-FPM engine is bundled. The php-fpm package is available in remi repository and will be soon in rawhide.
This entry show how to use it with the nginx web server.
My goal is to install a working web server, for local and packaged (RPM) applications, I will use phpMyAdmin as an example.
1. Installation :
yum --enablerepo=remi install php-fpm nginx phpMyAdmin
This command will also install the apache web server, listening on port 80. I will not use it, but I will configure nginx to listen on port 82.
2. Creating my web site
With nginx, pages are, by default, installed in the /usr/share/nginx/html directory.
My application will be very minimal:
echo '<?php phpinfo(); ?>' >/usr/share/nginx/html/nginfo.php
3. Nginx configuration
I'm really not an expert on this web server, but, reading the documentation (quite minimal), I found a working solution:
Change in the /etc/nginx/nginx.conf file.
Port :
listen 82;
Alias for phpMyAdmin (after the commented section about PHP)
location /phpMyAdmin {
alias /usr/share/phpMyAdmin;
index index.php index.html index.htm;
}
PHP Configuration for phpMyAdmin
location ~ /phpMyAdmin/.*\.php$ {
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
fastcgi_index index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /usr/share/$uri;
fastcgi_intercept_errors on;
include fastcgi_params;
}
PHP configuration for my local application
location ~ \.php$ {
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
fastcgi_index index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
fastcgi_intercept_errors on;
include fastcgi_params;
}
This is probably not the simplest / best solution (I'd like to not have to configure php twice), your comments are welcome, I will try to improve it.
4. Launch the services
service php-fpm start
service nginx start
5. Test URL
- http://localhost:82/ the default provided by nginx home page
- http://localhost:82/nginfo.php my great application
- http://localhost:82/phpMyAdmin/ a packaged application
6. Conclusion
It works !

Hello Remi,
Thanks for the helpful tutorial,
I checked fpm package on Fedora 13 repos, and didn't find it there, despite the fact fedora have upgraded to php 5.3.3. fedora is not including php-fpm package.
Any idea why? and/or would it be at all possible to just install remi's fpm rpm package instead all of remi's php packages?
Thanks!
php-fpm is not "yet" in fedora repository. (But it will first lands in rawhide, and I don't know if I will push it as an update to F-14 or F-13)
For now, you must install "all" php* rpm from my repo, but, globally there are the same than in official repository (except some additional extensions, like sqlite and oci8).

Dear Remi!
Thank you very much for the great work you're doing!
I got one question about php-fpm and php from your repo. You claim that it "Since PHP 5.3.3, the PHP-FPM engine is bundled". But here is the situation:
php-5.3.3-1.fc14.remi.i686
php-fpm-5.3.3-1.fc14.remi.i686
nginx-0.8.53-2.fc14.i686 (from official fedora repo)
and php -i | grep -i fpm says nothing.
So nothing works if try to follow your instructions (or just manuals). Is there anything wrong with php-fpm in this build?
Thank you very much in advance!
php command is the CLI Sapi.
the FPM Sapi is in the php-fpm command.
So, try

P.S. and, please, use the forums which are a better place for question / help.
