What request do you make of nginx?

Which of your defined location{} blocks does it match:

location / {
location = /50x.html {
location ~ \.php$ {

You wrote that it is returning some content, presumably with a http
200. That suggests that it is not failing to do what you told it to do.

It cannot guess what you want it to do.

Try a request that ends with ".php" ?

Use "curl -v" and copy-paste the output, if it is not what you expect.

There is the "debug log", which is "extra stuff written to the error log":
