I am having trouble getting Mono to work with nginx. I installed OpenBSD 5.3 and set up the appropriate (package) ports. I built mono, mono-xsp and nginx - all without incident. All three appear to be working OK, but not in conjunction.
I am trying to run the default VS MVC3 template web app, but keep getting a 502 (Bad gateway). In the error logs, I see the following:
[crit] 31764#0: *1 connect() to unix:/tmp/fastcgi.socket failed (2: No such file or directory) while connecting to upstream,*
The frustrating thing is that /tmp/fastcgi.socket does exist. I tried 'touch' and making sure 'wheel' and 'www' has the appropriate permissions (chmod 775 and 777). The result of 'ls -la /tmp/fastcgi.socket' revealed nothing awry.
Here is my config:
worker_processes 1;
events {
worker_connections 1024;
}
http {
include mime.types;
default_type application/octet-stream;
server {
listen 80;
access_log /home/www/nginx.log;
error_log /home/www/errors.log;
# root /home/www/test;
# index index.html index.htm index.aspx default.aspx;
location ^~ /Scripts/ { }
location ^~ /Content/ { }
location / {
root /home/www/test;
# fastcgi_index /;
fastcgi_pass unix:/tmp/fastcgi.socket;
# include fastcgi_params;
include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
}
}
}
I'm gonna hazard a guess that OpenBSD ports runs nginx jailed or chrooted. So check that first and if so you'll need to change the socket path to be created inside the jailed root.

I am unable debug which default document root for one of sub domain(s) configured in nginx, I have tried all valid solution described here.
Web server running on nginx version: nginx/1.10.3
Problem is I need to figure out, where is root dir for this URL http://w.knexusgroup.com/ or http://w.knexusgroup.com/index.php it prints 1
On /usr/share/nginx/html/index.php I have written 2.
Below is some snippet for nginx conf:
include /etc/nginx/static/*.conf;
include /etc/nginx/saas_clients/*.conf;
index index.php index.html index.htm;
server {
listen 80;
server_name localhost;
root /mnt/codebase/httpdocs/saas;
location / {
root /usr/share/nginx/html;
index index.php index.html index.htm;
}
# pass the PHP scripts to FastCGI server listening on 127.0.0.1:9000
location ~ \.php$ {

fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
fastcgi_index index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /scripts$fastcgi_script_name;
include fastcgi_params;
}
.
.
.
nginx -V
nginx version: nginx/1.10.3

Seems you have overridden root.
Steps to debug this kind of problem:
Try to create 1 virtual host file with w.knexus.
Restart nginx. This time it will report duplicate entry.
Pay attention on the config which is not newly created.
Once you identified config, you can remove the newly created conf.
See the root on conf:
a. There might be multiple root based on location, so make sure you are seeing right root path.
b. You might have proxies, so it might need further debugging inside proxy app as well

I trying to paste the following on my
nginx version: nginx/1.4.6 (Ubuntu)
server {
server_name www.example.com example.com;
access_log /var/www/logs/example_access.log;
error_log /var/www/logs/example_error.log;
root /var/www/html;
# case insensitive matching
if ($http_user_agent ~* (netcrawl|npbot|malicious|wget)) {
return 403;
}
location / {
index index.html index.htm index.php;
}
}
service nginx reload && service nginx restart
I did the following at another server
wget "http://mymainserver.com/myfile.html"
It still able to 200 ok fetch the file.
Any idea what do i do wrong.
Thanks!
Missing "}" in your config file
nginx: [emerg] unexpected end of file, expecting "}"
As a result,
nginx reload fails and service nginx restart is not even not called.
OR
server_name in your config file mismatches hostname used in wget => nginx skips your location
I have set a nginx, php, mysql and phpMyAdmin on my laptop (running Arch Linux). Everything was ok till I tried to move the root in my home directory.
Here is the nginx configuration file I'm using:
server {
############### General Settings ###################
listen 80;
server_name localhost;
root /home/me/Development;
charset utf-8;
############## Document Root #####################
location / {
index index.php index.html index.htm;
autoindex on;
}
############## PHPMyAdmin #######################
#location /phpmyadmin {
# rewrite ^/* /phpMyAdmin last;
#}
############# Error redirection pages ################
error_page 404 NGINX/html/404.html;
error_page 500 502 503 504 NGINX/html/50x.html;
############## Proxy Settings for FastCGI PHP Server #####
location ~ \.php$ {
if ($request_uri ~* /phpmyadmin) {
root /usr/share/nginx/html;
}
try_files $uri =404;
#fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000; (depending on your php-fpm socket configuration)
fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php-fpm/php-fpm.sock;
fastcgi_index index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
include fastcgi.conf;
}
location ~ /\.ht {
deny all;
}
}
So I'm trying to make this "Development" folder - the folder where I will store all my php projects. And I want to keep phpMyAdmin in its default location.
Now i get 403 Forbidden if i try to access phpMyAdmin or any php file on the new location - error message:
2016/05/20 14:11:46 [crit] 5292#5292: *3 stat() "/home/me/Development/test.php" failed (13: Permission denied), client: 127.0.0.1, server: localhost, request: "GET /test.php HTTP/1.1", host: "localhost"
It should do something with the linux groups and rights but can't figure it out.
It's selinux, google disabling that or configuring it to allow what you need to do.
When your perms are set right and the logs show 'permission denied' it's selinux.
You are using HTTP to get your page. Now HTTP is returning you the error code '403' which according to RFC 2616 means "The server understood the request, but is refusing to fulfill it. Authorization will not help and the request SHOULD NOT be repeated."
The two possible reason for this error code
Authentication was provided, but the authenticated user is not permitted to perform the requested operation.
The operation is forbidden to all users. For example, requests for a directory listing return code 403 when directory listing has been disabled.
Try to check your file permissions. There is the solution.
I had a similar problem: I also got the 403 error code and tried to configure the rights of the file with chmod 777. Still the same result.
My problem was I started the nginx webserver with sudo nginx instead of starting it with my user and my rights. Just start the server with nginx without sudo and you should be fine.
I hope this helps someone.
check the owners and mode of the folder by using ls -l command if user is sudo then run this sudo chown -R yourusername:yourusername Development adn also run sudo chmod -R 777 Development
I have configured nginx with fastcgi_mono_server4.
In my nginx config I have 2 hostnames :
server {
listen 80;
server_name dev.example.org
location / {
root /var/www/dev.example.org/;
fastcgi_index Default.aspx;
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9001;
include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
}
}
server {
listen 80;
server_name *.example.org
location / {
root /var/www/example.org/;
fastcgi_index Default.aspx;
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
}
}
nginx is OK with this configuration. dev goes to one and all other to another one .
I've already tried this :
fastcgi-mono-server4 /applications=*.example.org:/:/var/www/example.org/ /socket=tcp:127.0.0.1:9000
but it throws an error (Uri parse exception)
Update :
I need to get the full host name in my application, for example if the request was abc.example.org, I need to get "abc".
Unfortunately, HttpContext.Current.Request.Url does not contains "abc" but "*" which causes the parse error
If nginx is going to take care of routing the appropriate sub-domains to each fastcgi port (9000 or 9001) then can you get away with a wildcard domain when you start the mono server process e.g. just use a * instead of '*.example.org'
fastcgi-mono-server4 /applications=*:/:/var/www/example.org/ /socket=tcp:127.0.0.1:9000
Update: The above works to get two Mono server apps listening via nginx, but, using the nginx config from the original question will lead to an exception if you call HttpContext.Request.Url on the catch-all server. This is due to it not liking the * in *.example.org.
There are two possible solutions, depending what you'd like to see returned from HttpContext.Request.Url when a client browses foo.example.org, bar.example.org etc.
Option 1: If you don't care about the sub-domain and want to see example.org
Configure the second (*.example.org) nginx server to be the 'default_server' and have it assign a server-name without the wildcard e.g.
server {
listen 80 default_server;
server_name example.org;
access_log ... }
With these settings, browsing to foo.example.org/Default.aspx loads the page and HttpContext.Request.Url returns example.org/Default.aspx
Option 2: If you want to see the actual sub-domain e.g. foo.example.org
Removing the server_name from the second server definition works.
server {
listen 80 default_server;
access_log ... }
With these settings, browsing to foo.example.org/Default.aspx loads the page and HttpContext.Request.Url returns foo.example.org/Default.aspx
#stephen's answer is more simple and does not need fastcgi config modification.
I tried previous answer (before update), but it did not work.
Nginx take care of routing, as #stephen said, and the routing part worked.
to start fastcgi I used this command to match all routes (and server names)
fastcgi-mono-server4 /applications=/:/var/www/example.org/ /socket=tcp:127.0.0.1:9000
The problem was that HttpContext.Request.Url contains the $server_name value in my case it was "*.example.org" and when I try to parse URI there was an error.
To handle this I changed nginx fastcgi_params and replaced thi line
fastcgi_param SERVER_NAME $server_name;
by
fastcgi_param SERVER_NAME $http_host;
and add in site-available conf
proxy_set_header Host $host;
I think it is set by default.
reload nginx
nginx -t && service nginx reload
reload fastcgi-mono-server to test
fastcgi-mono-server4 /applications=/://var/www/example.org/ /socket=tcp:127.0.0.1:9000 /printlog=True /loglevels=Debug
in the log SERVER_NAME contains the real (not *) subomain.
I have built nginx on a freebsd system with the following configuration parameters:
./configure ... –with-http_dav_module
Now this is my configuration file:
user www www;
worker_processes 1;
events {
worker_connections 1024;
}
http {
include mime.types;
default_type application/octet-stream;
# reserve 1MB under the name 'proxied' to track uploads
upload_progress proxied 1m;
sendfile on;
#tcp_nopush on;
client_max_body_size 500m;
#keepalive_timeout 0;
keepalive_timeout 65;
#gzip on;
#upload_store /var/tmp/firmware;
client_body_temp_path /var/tmp/firmware;
server {
server_name localhost;
listen 8080;
auth_basic "Restricted";
auth_basic_user_file /root/.htpasswdfile;
create_full_put_path on;
client_max_body_size 50m;
dav_access user:rw group:r all:r;
dav_methods PUT DELETE MKCOL COPY MOVE;
autoindex on;
root /root;
location / {
}
}
}
Now, the next things I do are check the syntax of the confiuration file by issuing a nginx -t and then do a graceful reload as follows: nginx -s reload.
Now, when I point my web-browser to the nginx-ip-address:8080 i get the list of my files and folders and so on and so forth (I think that is due to the autoindex on feature).
But the problem is that when I try to test the webdav using cadaver as follows:
cadaver http://nginx-ip-address:8080/
It asks me to enter authorization credentials and then after I enter that it gives me the following error:
Could not open Collection: 405 Not Allowed
And the following is the nginx-error-log line which occurs at the same time:
*125 no user/password was provided for basic authentication, client: 172.16.255.1, server: localhost, request: "OPTIONS / HTTP/1.1", host: "172.16.255.129:8080"
The username and pass work just fine wheni try to access it from the web-browser, then what is happening here?
It turns out that the webdav module in-built in nginx is broken and to enable full webdav, we need to add the following external 3rd party module: nginx-dav-ext-module.
Link to its github: https://github.com/arut/nginx-dav-ext-module.git
The configure parameter would now be:
./configure --with-http_dav_module --add-module=/path/to/the/above/module
The built in one just provides the PUT DELETE MKCOL COPY MOVE dav methods.
The nginx-dav-ext-module adds the following additional dav methods: PROPFIND OPTIONS
You will also need to edit the configuration file to add the following line:
dav_ext_methods PROPFIND OPTIONS;
After doing so check if the syntax of the conf file is intact by issuing: nginx -t
and then soft reload (gracefully) nginx: nginx -s reload
And Voila! you should now be able to use cadaver or any other dav client program to get into the directories.
I cannot believe that I solved this, it drove me nuts for a while!
