This is guide howto install Nginx with PHP 7.2.12 and PHP-FPM on Fedora 29/28/27, CentOS 7.5/6.10 and Red Hat (RHEL) 7.5/6.10. PHP-FPM is easier to use and configure than FastCGI and some tests says that PHP-FPM is even much more efficient than FastCGI. Nginx (engine x) is a robust, small and high performance http server, reverse proxy server and also mail proxy server. PHP-FPM (FastCGI Process Manager) is an alternative PHP FastCGI implementation with some additional features useful for sites of any size, especially busier sites. 1.

  Hi bob,
  
  There is not nginx own repo for Fedora (as this guide says, it’s only for CentOS and Red Hat), please remove that repo file and use just yum.

  Hi Dimitrios,
  
  Did you enabled remi and remi-php55 repos? Like:
```
yum --enablerepo=remi,remi-php55 install nginx php-fpm php-common
```

Hi JR,

Thanks for the post. I am new to the web server world, may I raise a question?
Does php-fpm works with apache? What did you choose nginx?

  Hi dpdh,
  
  You are welcome.
  
  PHP-FPM works with Apache 2.4.x using mod_proxy_fcgi module. Then you don’t need suphp, suexec or mod_php.
  
  If you want run PHP with nginx, then PHP-FPM is only reasonable option. Nginx is much lighter and powerful web server than Apache so that’s why this guide exists.

Since you explicitly set the document root in the server clause, you can simplify the following line in the testsite.local virtual host file:
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /srv/www/testsite.local/public_html$fastcgi_script_name;
with
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;

  Hi bdspice,
  
  This testsite.local is just an example which works on localhost if you don’t have real domain. Same setup works for real domain, but you don’t have to do any changes on /etc/hosts file.
  
  If you have domain xyz.com, then setup is almost same, you have to of course replace directory names and change dns records to point right place and open port 80 on firewall.
  
  Please read guide, but here is quick steps:
  
  1. Point your domain xyz.com dns records to your ip.
  
  2. Create directories like
  /srv/www/xyz.com/public_html
  /srv/www/xyz.com/logs
  
  3. Create Virtualhost /etc/nginx/sites-available/xyz.com:
```
server {
    server_name xyz.com;
    access_log /srv/www/xyz.com/logs/access.log;
    error_log /srv/www/xyz.com/logs/error.log;
    root /srv/www/xyz.com/public_html;
 
    location / {
        index index.html index.htm index.php;
    }
 
    location ~ \.php$ {
        include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
        fastcgi_pass  127.0.0.1:9000;
        fastcgi_index index.php;
        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /srv/www/xyz.com/public_html$fastcgi_script_name;
    }
}
```
  4. “Enable” your virtualhost
```
cd /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/
ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/xyz.com
```
  5. Restart (or reload) your nginx service
```
systemctl restart nginx.service

## OR ##

service nginx restart
```
  6. Open firewall port

      No, you don’t need Apache. PHP-FPM is enough to run php scripts.
      
      This might be some configuration error. Could you post full code of your simple script which is not working?

Hai JR
Great tutorial. You just might want to add, that it might be necessary to edit [i]/etc/php-fpm.d/www.conf[/i] in case of a 502 Bad Gateway error.

It should listen to the same values as you give for fastcgi_pass in the available site config :)

epel is now on the following URL: http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/7/x86_64/e/epel-release-7-8.noarch.rpm, you have http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/7/x86_64/e/epel-release-7-7.noarch.rpm in content which brings up 404 error now.

What if I have 2 sites that I am hosting. One is at /siteName, and that’s the php site. The other is /. / is on 4040 and /siteName is on 8080?

  Hi Eric,
  
  You can use VirtualHosts and set both listen different ports or different host names, example
  
  Virtual host 1:
  server { ... listen 8080; ... }
  
  Virtual host 2:
  server { ... listen 4040; ... }
  
  Maybe better setup is use server_name directive, like:
  
  Virtual host 1:
  server { ... server_name site1.localhost; ... }
  
  Virtual host 2:
  server { ... server_name site2.localhost; ... }
