Setting proper path in Nginx for Symfony2

Question

I need to have my symfony app installed on the same domain as other webapps so I wanted it to sit in /dev/symfony_app path

I tried to use NginX Friendly PHP Framework but solutions from there do not work.

I have such nginx config and it does not work at all too. there is some problem with paths, nor root neither alias directive work for me.

location /dev/symfony_app/ {
    root /home/.../public_html/web;
}
location ~ ^/dev/symfony_app/(app|app_dev|config)\.php(/|$) {
    fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php-fpm.sock;
    fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.*)$;
    include fastcgi_params;
    fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $fastcgi_script_name;
    fastcgi_param HTTPS off;
}

nginx error log:

Well, what are the dots doing there in your path? You can’t have a directory with three dots as name (at least this would be new to me). The error message from nginx is very specific in that regard. That path doesn’t exist.

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name _;
    root /home/public_html/web;

    location / {
        location ~* ^/dev/symfony_app/(app|app_dev|config)\.php$ {
            include fastcgi_params;
            fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
            fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php-fpm.sock;
        }
    }
}

That should do the trick.

The absolute local path to the index file of your Symfony installation has to be /home/public_html/web/dev/symfony_app/index.php. A request to http://example.com/dev/symfony_app will map the above location.

I hope this helps, otherwise please leave a comment and describe what else is going wrong.

dots in my path is just removed username. perhaps I should set there some name to make it clear. I will check proposed solution in few hours and let know if it worked at all.
