Hello. I would like to advise how I can change the root entry in nginx.conf in Windows so that it does not load the www folder, which is located in the "nginx" folder, but refers to the folder one level higher?
I need this to be specified as a relative path because the location where nginx is started from changes with the www folder which is located one level up.

Normally situation:

app: data/web/nginx
webfiles: data/web/nginx/www

i wanted solution for:

app: data/web/nginx
webfiles: data/web/www

With php config.

My nginx.conf:

#user nobody;
worker_processes 1;

#error_log logs/error.log;
#error_log logs/error.log notice;
#error_log logs/error.log info;

#pid logs/nginx.pid;


events {
worker_connections 1024;
}


http {
include mime.types;
default_type application/octet-stream;

#log_format main '$remote_addr - $remote_user [$time_local] "$request" '
# '$status $body_bytes_sent "$http_referer" '
# '"$http_user_agent" "$http_x_forwarded_for"';

#access_log logs/access.log main;

sendfile on;
#tcp_nopush on;

#keepalive_timeout 0;
keepalive_timeout 65;

#gzip on;

client_max_body_size 200M;




server {
listen 80;
listen [::]:80;
server_name localhost;

root www;
index index.php index.html index.htm;

location ~* \.(ico|css|js|gif|jpe?g|png)(\?[0-9]+)?$ {

}

return 404;
}

location ~* \.php$ {
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
include fastcgi.conf;
}


# Errors

error_page 500 502 503 504 /50x.php;
location = /50x.php {
root www;
}


}


server {
listen 80;
listen [::]:80;

server_name pma.*;

location / {
root phpMyAdmin;
index index.php index.html index.htm;
try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
}

location ~ \.php$ {
root phpMyAdmin;
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
fastcgi_index index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /scripts$fastcgi_script_name;
include fastcgi.conf;
}
}
}

Please

server {
listen ....;
[...]
root 'h:/websites/www.yoursite.com';
location /items/ { # adds to root setting
try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
[...]
}
}

In php.ini you have stuff like,

[PATH=H:/Websites/www.yoursite.com]
open_basedir = H:/Websites/www.yoursite.com
doc_root = H:/Websites/www.yoursite.com

---
nginx for Windows http://nginx-win.ecsds.eu/

"H:/Websites/www.yoursite.com"

is absolute path

i want solution as relative path... for example as:

"../web/"

Use root set abs path, anything else will be relative to abs.
