For web servers using PHP as apache module:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .html .htm
For web servers running PHP as CGI:
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .html .htm
I have an Nginx server and I want to run .js files and and .htm files as PHP, so I will have full PHP code inside them. Anyone know how to configure the Nginx to do this?
Passing to fastcgi didn't work for me. After a few hours of searching, I have found solution here: http://ffct.cc/solving-nginx-php-fpm-access-denied-issue/
In short:
since PHP versions > 5.3.8, to make it works, you should add directive to your php-fpm.conf:
security.limit_extensions = .php .html .js
The recognition sign is "Access denied." (notice that it's different from HTTP error 403) when accesssing .html or .js file.
Simple; just change
location ~ \.php$ {
root html;
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
fastcgi_index index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
include fastcgi_params;
}
to
location ~ \.(php|html|htm)$ {
root html;
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
fastcgi_index index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
include fastcgi_params;
}
Example for .htm, .html files
location ~ \.htm$ {
root html;
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
fastcgi_index index.htm;
include fastcgi.conf;
}
Example for .js files
location ~ \.js$ {
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
include fastcgi_params;
}
just change the extension and port settings if needed
Replying to this thread many years later, I spent three hours trying to solve this issue, I had all the right settings in my location block (php|html|htm) and in PHP-FPM (security.limit_extensions), my problem was that I already had the .html extension in a previous location which was used for some static files, so if anyone else is having issues despite using the right settings, please make sure that you're not making the same dumb mistake I did :)
Tom's answer with the link:
http://ffct.cc/solving-nginx-php-fpm-access-denied-issue/
was really helpful. However, I was using php with php-fpm installed on mac os yosemite w/ homebrew. Changes to the php-fpm.conf file did not take effect until I added the following to my .bash_profile:
# for homebrew php55
export PATH="/usr/local/sbin:$PATH"
For details see:
brew info php55
In macOS 11.5 with PHP 8.0, when I browse http://localhost/index.html, it ends with 403 Forbidden
I had to change file /usr/local/etc/php/8.0/php-fpm.d/www.conf to set
security.limit_extensions = .php .html
PHP code blocks in my .html files are properly executed, following is my server block in nginx .conf file
server {
listen 80;
server_name example.local;
root "/var/www/html";
index index.html;
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
}
location ~ \.html$ {
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
include fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
}
}
