How can I setup nginx to serve virtualhosts with rails(unicorn/passenger) and php-fpm
- by NewAlexandria
I would like to serve multiple sites on one instance.
I install nginx, php-fpm, and a rails app. I use sites like this to guide me.
I configure php-fpm to listen to a local socket
listen = /var/run/php-fpm/php-fpm.sock
I configure ngnix with multiple hosts:
include /etc/nginx/conf.d/*.conf
I have several site php conf files like /etc/nginx/conf.d/site1.conf
server {
listen 80;
server_name site1.com www.site1.com;
root /var/www/site1;
location / {
index index.html index.php;
}
location ~ \.php$ {
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php-fpm/php-fpm.sock;
fastcgi_index index.php;
include fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_param PATH_INFO $fastcgi_script_name;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root/$fastcgi_script_name;
}
}
and rails site conf files like
upstream rails {
server 127.0.0.1:3000;
}
server {
listen 80;
server_name site2.com www.site2.com;
root /var/www/site2;
location / {
proxy_pass http://rails;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Url-Scheme $scheme;
}
}
I have a unicorn rails server running via rails s -p 3000
Yet, no sites come up for either site1.com or site2.com. I can get to the rails site at www.site2.com:3000
What is wrong? I've spent 2 days (nearly 30hr) trying many different blogs, SO / SF questions, etc. Please share your insight or answer.
edit 1: No log entries are created when I try to visit either site. It's like the requests never come in.
