Hi there,
There is an issue with using php in an aliased location; but you don't
seem to use "alias" in your configuration at all, so that's not the
problem here.

The "^~" there means that, if this is the most specific prefix-match
location, the regex locations are not checked.

And this one is a regex location. So this is not used at all. Which is
why your php script is served as-is, without fastcgi processing.
From what you say above, this regex could be tightened to require
/player.php at the end. And maybe to require no / between courses/
and /player.php

I'm not sure what that part tries to do; it's an "if" inside a "location",
so it probably does not do what you expect.

You don't seem to use $valid_fastcgi_script_name anyway.
I suspect that if you move the "location ~" block inside the "location
^~" block, you'll either see things Just Work, or at least see some more
useful error messages to point you at any other problems.
The "root" and "if" parts above are then probably ok to remove.

And the last two lines could become "include fastcgi.conf;", or
alternatively $document_root could be used instead of /var/www.
Good luck with it,
