nginx settings location mis-downloading - wordpress

Question

I'm setting up nginx with php5-fpm on Ubuntu 12.04LTS for wordpress and phpMyAdmin.
My phpMyAdmin locates in/var/www/phpMyAdmin, wordpress in /home/user/workspace/wordpress, MySQL at /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
I want to map / to wordpress, /phpmyadmin to phpMyAdmin, so how can I achieve this??
Wordpress seemed OK, but when accessing /phpmyadmin, the browser "downloads" the request as files...??
This is my current nginx.conf:
server {
listen 8000;
root /home/user/workspace/wordpress;
index index.html index.htm index.php;\
location ~* /phpmyadmin { #TODO: shall here be a tailing slash??
#TODO: root or alias???
}
location ~ \..*/.*\.php$ {
return 403;
}
location / {
#TODO: show the following line be un-commented??
#try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?q=$uri&$args;
# Uncomment to enable naxsi on this location
# include /etc/nginx/naxsi.rules
}
location ~ \.php$ {
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
# NOTE: You should have "cgi.fix_pathinfo = 0;" in php.ini
fastcgi_intercept_errors on;
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;
fastcgi_index index.php;#TODO: could this being removed??
include fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
}
#FIXME: and how to block all access to /home/user/workspace/wordpress/server.d/*
#This doesn't work??
location /sever\.d {
autoindex on;
deny all;
}
And, what permission should I set for both the directory wordpress/ and phpMyAdmin/ if all the servers are running as www-data:www-data??
Currently I set them as 755 user:www-data, is that correct??
I haven't set up server under linux yet, I was using those servers under WinXP, so I'm trying.

in you between location add this
location /phpmyadmin {
root /usr/share/;
index index.php index.html index.htm;
location ~ ^/phpmyadmin/(.+\.php)$ {
try_files $uri =404;
root /usr/share/;
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
fastcgi_index index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
}
location ~* ^/phpmyadmin/(.+\.(jpg|jpeg|gif|css|png|js|ico|html|xml|txt))$ {
root /usr/share/;
}
}
location /phpMyAdmin {
rewrite ^/* /phpmyadmin last;
}
anywhere between
