Thanks to both of you, I got the info I was seeking for.
However, when I try to activate the fastcgi_param, the content doesn't seem
to reach PHP anymore.
No error logged neither in Nginx nor PHP it seems.
I feel like I am a noob... oO
server {
listen 80;
server_name ~ab.cd$;
root /var/web/$host;
index index.html index.php;
try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
access_log /var/log/nginx/ab.cd/access.log main;
error_log /var/log/nginx/ab.cd/error.log warn;
include conf.d/includes/fastcgi.conf;
auth_basic "Get out!";
auth_basic_user_file /var/web/ab.cd.htpasswd;
location ~ \.php$ {
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php-fpm.sock;
#If the following is activated, no more PHP output...
Something is wrong
# fastcgi_param MY_GREAT_USER $remote_user;
}
}
