As it was already discussed, nginx "include"s files on start time,
while "root", etc. substitute variable values on run time.
As to global php settings, you may use
http {
# here you may set any fastcgi settings expect fastcgi_pass,
# and they will be inherited in all servers and locations.
fastcgi_index ...
fastcgi_param ...
server {
...
location \.php$ {
fastcgi_pass ...;
}
}
server {
...
location \.php$ {
fastcgi_pass ...;
}
}
My personal paractice is always to use separate servers since it allows
to change their configuration without risk to break others.
