Below is my current configuration: Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS nginx/1.4.6 ISPConfig3 3.0.5.4p5 I am having issues with json_decode, and I am not sure where the issue lies, so I am hoping that someone here can help me. In the system that I am using, I have the following code: PHP: $json = _file_get_contents($json_url . 'staff/staffID/' . $id . '/');$decode = json_decode($json, true); When running this code on an Apache server, it returns results if the ID exists. On my Nginx/ISPConfig3 powered server, the same code returns NULL? I figured that there was something missing in the vhost, so I created a custom vhost master and added the following to location @php {}: default_type application/octet-stream;. I did a resync in ISPConfg3, checked the vhost of the site, saw that it was updated, but I am still getting a NULL result when I do var_dump($decode) even though the staffID exists. Is there something I am missing?
I figured it out. The issue was having a number in the base url for $json_url (i.e. http://example.com/v1/staff/staffID/1/). I don't know why having "v1" in the url would cause issue on Nginx / ISPConfig3 but it does. Versioning an API is common practice.
