Nginx not working properly on subdomains
- by javipas
I've been trying to setup a Sugar CRM instance. I've got a domain that has its main site on a server (www.domain.com) and I've created a subdomain (sugar.domain.com), but I wnat this subdomain to be hosted on another server.
This second server has nginx installed, and there's a working WordPress blog there on a virtualhost, so I would need to setup a second site. To do this I've created the directory structure, and I've created a /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/sugar.domain.com configuration file that has the following:
*
server {
listen 80;
server_name sugar.domain.com *.domain.com;
access_log /var/www/sugar/log/access.log;
error_log /var/www/sugar/log/error.log info;
location / {
root /var/www/sugar;
index index.php;
}
location ~ .php$ {
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(.*)$;
fastcgi_pass backend;
fastcgi_index index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /var/www/sugar/$fastcgi_script_name;
include fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_param QUERY_STRING $query_string;
fastcgi_param REQUEST_METHOD $request_method;
fastcgi_param CONTENT_TYPE $content_type;
fastcgi_param CONTENT_LENGTH $content_length;
fastcgi_intercept_errors on;
fastcgi_ignore_client_abort on;
fastcgi_read_timeout 180;
}
## Disable viewing .htaccess & .htpassword
location ~ /\.ht {
deny all;
}
}
upstream backend {
server 127.0.0.1:9000;
}
As far as I know, I need the *.domain.com parameter on the "server_name" flag, but something is crashing here: I get either a 403 Forbidden error, or I get PHP code (I can read the PHP file code in the browser, like normal text) that somehow is not executed. I've tried setting permissions to 755 inside the /var/www/sugar/ directory, and I've also set up the owner:group with a chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/sugar/
The thing is, I don't now if my mistake is in the nginx site configuration, in my folder permissions, or in other place :(
Could it be because of the main domain (www.domain.com) is hosted on other server? Do they have to be together necessarily?
