Nginx locations configuration for two directions - nginx

Question

I have a little experience with configuring nginx server and here is my trouble.
I am trying set correct locations. I have two directs: address.com and address.com/api.
For last direction(API) I have setted locations and it works fine. API is located in /var/www/project/api folder.
root /var/www/project;
index index.php;
server_name localhost;
location /api {
try_files /api/$uri $uri/ /api/index.php?$query_string;
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
fastcgi_split_path_info ^/api/(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
fastcgi_intercept_errors on;
fastcgi_index index.php;
include fastcgi_params;
}
location ~ \.php$ {
try_files $uri =404;
fastcgi_keep_conn on;
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
fastcgi_index index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
include fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_buffer_size 32k;
fastcgi_busy_buffers_size 64k;
fastcgi_buffers 4 32k;
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
}
Now I need implement root for address.com to /var/www/project/website. And here I have some troubles.
First thing, what I did I had written that:
location / {
alias /var/www/project/website/;
}
And then I tried to add many different variants and here is my last note.
I have put it inside location / {}
location ~ ^/(.+\.php)$ {
alias /var/www/project/website/;
include /etc/nginx/fastcgi.conf;
proxy_intercept_errors on;
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(.*)$;
fastcgi_intercept_errors on;
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
fastcgi_index index.php;
}
In /etc/nginx/fastcgi.conf file I have added
fastcgi_param PATH_TRANSLATED $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
And I get all time 403 Forbidden or 404 Not found or in nginx errors log is written that, for example, /var/www/project/website/... is not found.
Has somebody experience with nginx configuring and can tell, how to set /website location correct?

Answer 1

Something like that:
server {
listen 80;
server_name localhost;
root /var/www/src/website;
index index.php index.html;
error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log;
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
}
location /test {
try_files $uri $uri/test.html =404;
}
location /api/ {
alias /var/www/src/api/;
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php =404;
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;
fastcgi_index index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
}
location /pmants {
root /var/www/src/;
index index.php index.html index.htm;
location ~ ^/pmants/(.+\.php)$ {
try_files $uri =404;
root /var/www/src/;
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;
fastcgi_index index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
}
location ~* ^/pmants/(.+\.(jpg|jpeg|gif|css|png|js|ico|html|xml|txt))$ {
root /var/www/src/;
}
}
location ~* \.php {
include fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
fastcgi_cache off;
fastcgi_index index.php;
}
}
