New page

==Nginx - Magento vhost Configuration==

The web is all about speed, the faster your site the better your search results. One way to increase your sites speed is to use Nginx, Nginx is light weight and powerful.

Working for a company that specializes in Magneto web hosting, that primarily uses Apache, I thought I would setup a site using Nginx. To check the if that makes a large difference.

After installing Nginx and getting the server aspects setup, you will want to configure your vhost file with the default .htaccess rules that come with Mangento.

Here is the configurations from Nginx - http://wiki.nginx.org/Magento

They have two separate configurations for Magento versions.

===This config works for version 1.7 - and above===

server {
root /home/magento/web/;
index index.php;
server_name magento.example.com;
location / {
index index.html index.php;
try_files $uri $uri/ @handler;
expires 30d;
}
location ~ ^/(app|includes|lib|media/downloadable|pkginfo|report/config.xml|var)/ { internal; }
location /var/export/ { internal; }
location /. { return 404; }
location @handler { rewrite / /index.php; }
location ~* .php/ { rewrite ^(.*.php)/ $1 last; }
location ~* .php$ {
if (!-e $request_filename) { rewrite / /index.php last; }
expires off;
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
fastcgi_param MAGE_RUN_CODE default;
fastcgi_param MAGE_RUN_TYPE store;
include fastcgi_params;
}
}

===This config currently seems to work for the <1.4 versions===

server {
server_name example.com;
root /var/www/vhost/example.com/htdocs;
access_log /var/log/nginx/example.com.access.log main;
index index.php;

location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args;
}

# set a nice expire for assets
location ~* "^.+\.(jpe?g|gif|css|png|js|ico|pdf|zip|tar|t?gz|mp3|wav|swf)$" {
expires max;
add_header Cache-Control public;
}

# the downloader has its own index.php that needs to be used
location ~* ^(/downloader|/js|/404|/report)(.*) {
include fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_index index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$1/index.php$1;
fastcgi_read_timeout 600;
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
}

location ~* \.php {
include fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
fastcgi_read_timeout 600;
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
}

}
