Nginx config for symfony on ubuntu

Question

I want to setup symfony with nginx and this config is working fine

server {
    listen 80;
    root /src/web;

    location / {
        # try to serve file directly, fallback to app.php
        try_files $uri /app.php$is_args$args;
    }

    location ~ ^/app\.php(/|$) {
        fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.2-fpm.sock;
        fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.*)$;
        include fastcgi_params;
        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
        # Prevents URIs that include the front controller. This will 404:
        # http://domain.tld/app.php/some-path
        # Remove the internal directive to allow URIs like this
        internal;
    }

    error_log /var/log/nginx/symfony_error.log;
    access_log /var/log/nginx/symfony_access.log;
}

However i also want that on my server i should also be able to access files via app_dev.php and app_test.php as well

so far with above config. http://127.0.0.1/api/check is working fine

but i also want

http://127.0.0.1/app_dev.php/api/check and http://127.0.0.1/app_test.php/api/check to work as well.

Currently its gives me 404 error

@Phil no it dont work , because the look like all the urls are automatically prefixed with app.php try_files $uri /app.php$is_args$args;. i tried chaging it to app_dev and app_test and it works fine as well but they dont work all together , with apache2 it works , bow now i want to use nginx only — Master

You might need to add fastcgi_param PATH_INFO $fastcgi_path_info;. See nginx.com/resources/wiki/start/topics/examples/phpfcgi/…. You also haven't enabled php-fpm for anything other that app.php — Phil

@Phil You mean , i need to delete the line fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name; and use fastcgi_param PATH_INFO $fastcgi_path_info; , also i tried chaging the regex to use app_dev as well but still i get 404 error — Master

Honestly, I don't know as I'm a lousy sysadmin. You might get some traction over at serverfault.com if you can't get an answer here. — Phil

Assuming your using this for development you can list each file (Environment) in a capturing group () and separate with | which basically means "or".

location ~ ^/(app|app_dev|app_test)\.php(/|$) {
    ....
}

It is important not to use this example on a production server, as it is completely unsecure.

On a production server your current conf, is correct to only allow app.php.

Just for clarification you will need to restart nginx after making the changes.

For more information you can use description from symfony and nginx official docs.

As you can see you should add some lines into your nginx conf file:

location ~ ^/(app_dev|config)\.php(/|$) {
    ...
}

In case you also need app_test.php, then it should be changed a little bit. Just by including the file name:

location ~ ^/(app_dev|app_test)\.php(/|$) {
    ...
}

But please have a note:

In production, don't include this and don't deploy app_dev.php or app_test.php

Also it would be better to have following configuration before error_log ...:

location ~ \.php$ {
    return 404;
}
