Creating correct NGINX Directives for PHP app

Hey everyone,
as this isnt directly related to ISPconfig and more to creating a correct nginx directive setup for a PHP app, i'm coming up here.

So i actually trying to get the Pelican Panel to work on my ISPconfig 3.2 NGINX based Webserver to work, but ending in a 500 server error cause it cant find my composer autoload.php as i read this error.

So it is regarding this setup:
https://pelican.dev/docs/panel/webserver-config

So the actual nginx directive is:

Code:

##subroot public ##

location ~ \.php$ { ##delete##
}

location @php { ##delete##
}

client_max_body_size 100m;
client_body_timeout 120s;

sendfile off;

add_header X-Content-Type-Options nosniff;
add_header X-XSS-Protection "1; mode=block";
add_header X-Robots-Tag none;
add_header Content-Security-Policy "frame-ancestors 'self'";
add_header X-Frame-Options DENY;
add_header Referrer-Policy same-origin;

location ~ \.php(?:$|/) {
    fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
    {FASTCGIPASS}
    fastcgi_index index.php;
    include fastcgi_params;
    fastcgi_param PHP_VALUE "upload_max_filesize = 100M \n post_max_size=100M";
    fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $realpath_root$fastcgi_script_name;
    fastcgi_param HTTP_PROXY "";
    fastcgi_intercept_errors off;
    fastcgi_buffer_size 16k;
    fastcgi_buffers 4 16k;
    fastcgi_connect_timeout 300;
    fastcgi_send_timeout 300;
    fastcgi_read_timeout 300;
    include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
}

location / {
    try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string;
}

Which ends in the following error in the nginx error log: (client ip and domain reducted)

Code:

2025/03/14 13:17:39 [error] 14721#14721: *69 FastCGI sent in stderr: "PHP message: PHP Warning:  require(/var/www/clients/client1/web13/web/public/../vendor/autoload.php): Failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /var/www/clients/client1/web13/web/public/index.php on line 13; PHP message: PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught Error: Failed opening required '/var/www/clients/client1/web13/web/public/../vendor/autoload.php' (include_path='.:/usr/share/php') in /var/www/clients/client1/web13/web/public/index.php:13

To install composer i have run as root:

Code:

curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | sudo php -- --install-dir=/usr/local/bin --filename=composer

and then as the web13 user within the web folder:

Code:

composer install --no-dev --optimize-autoloader

I've always had some problems configuring the PHP location blocks correctly - maybe there's someone here who could take a look.

Best regards

 

That's it ^^ ... Sometimes starting simple is the solution Thank you ^^
