 * Hi Everyone,
 * I got that issue fixed after adding a line in Webmin. This is for Webmin enabled
   users, so make sure you have WEbmin installed.
 * Go To Webmin>Servers>Nginx Webserver
 * In that select the Edit Configuration Files option.
 * Then select your /etc/nginx/sites-available/yourdomainname.com
 * You will see something like this:
 *     ```
       server {
       	server_name sameermanas.com www.sameermanas.com;
       	listen 69.85.88.135;
       	root /home/sameermanas/public_html;
       	index index.html index.htm index.php;
       	access_log /var/log/virtualmin/sameermanas.com_access_log;
       	error_log /var/log/virtualmin/sameermanas.com_error_log;
       	fastcgi_param GATEWAY_INTERFACE CGI/1.1;
       	fastcgi_param SERVER_SOFTWARE nginx;
       	fastcgi_param QUERY_STRING $query_string;
       	fastcgi_param REQUEST_METHOD $request_method;
       	fastcgi_param CONTENT_TYPE $content_type;
       	fastcgi_param CONTENT_LENGTH $content_length;
       	fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /home/sameermanas/public_html$fastcgi_script_name;
       	fastcgi_param SCRIPT_NAME $fastcgi_script_name;
       	fastcgi_param REQUEST_URI $request_uri;
       	fastcgi_param DOCUMENT_URI $document_uri;
       	fastcgi_param DOCUMENT_ROOT /home/sameermanas/public_html;
       	fastcgi_param SERVER_PROTOCOL $server_protocol;
       	fastcgi_param REMOTE_ADDR $remote_addr;
       	fastcgi_param REMOTE_PORT $remote_port;
       	fastcgi_param SERVER_ADDR $server_addr;
       	fastcgi_param SERVER_PORT $server_port;
       	fastcgi_param SERVER_NAME $server_name;
       	location ~ \.php$ {
       		fastcgi_pass localhost:9003;
       	}
   
       	location / { try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args; }
   
       }
       ```
   
 * Notice the line called “location / { try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args; }”
 * That is the line I added in the end. It fixes your Permalinks issues.
 * At last make sure you click Save and then click on Apply Nginx Configuration
 * Hope this helps anyone out there like me.

 * Thank you all for your time !
 * Finally one simple question. If i host a new website on the same VPS, can i use
   the same conf file in site-available (Of course i will change the domain to newdomain.
   com in the links)
 * Like /nignx/sites-available/domainone.com.conf
    /nginx/sites-available/domaintwo.
   com.conf . . etc

 * Thank you very much sir. Is there anything else i should do further to ensure
   less conflicts.
 * Also since you asked me to disable W3Total Cache, I did that immediately.
 * However in order to make sure that the Nginx and other related tools work fast,
   Are there any other plugins or codes that make WordPress faster and less resource
   hungry.
 * Thank you very much once again for the help Pothi Kalimuthu Sir
 * [@arnoud](https://wordpress.org/support/users/arnoud/) : Thank you very much 
   for taking the time to look through this. Also can you suggest any changes that
   are needed for the “sites-available” and “sites-enabled” folders.
 * I really don’t understand what difference they make.

 * @ Arnoud I am using Php-Fpm and i have the [sitename].conf file in the sites-
   available folder(Not inside sites-enabled). Sites-enabled is not touched till
   now.
 * The PHP version is 5.3.6 and Nginx is 1.0.5
 * Yes i have been through the configuration details but unfortunately i haven’t
   been through the pitfalls thing.

   of /etc/nginx/sites-available/bloggerstack.com.conf

 * Here is the Nginx.conf.
 * I had to use piratepad since pastebin wasn’t working at the time.
 * [http://piratepad.net/nQbG669fqs](http://piratepad.net/nQbG669fqs)
 * This configuration was actually from [https://github.com/perusio/wordpress-nginx](https://github.com/perusio/wordpress-nginx)
 * It was created for nginx and wordpress, so i gave it a try. But none of them 
   are working for me.
 * [@pothi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pothi/) Kalimuthu: If you want to
   take a look into all the files, I can provide you my credentials sir.

 * I already installed that plugin but there is no effect yet :/
 * I guess the nginx conf files need some more code, but i am not well versed with
   the code.

 * @ Clayton,
 * Thanks for the help. I opened a ticket 5 days back but still they are lagging
   the issue and aren’t responding. Maybe i’ll have to wait for a few more days 
   for this to be resolved.
 * Thanks for your time 🙂

 * Hi Clayton,
 * Those lines are all commented and also there exist another php.conf.rpmsave
 * I came across a CentOS forum where i came to know that Atomic repo would be updating
   things by itself and everything would be automated. So i added that to the rep’s.
   Do you think that is causing the issue ??
 * Here is the content of the php.conf
 *     ```
       #
       # PHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language which attempts to make it
       # easy for developers to write dynamically generated webpages.
       #
       <IfModule prefork.c>
         LoadModule php5_module modules/libphp5.so
       </IfModule>
       <IfModule worker.c>
         LoadModule php5_module modules/libphp5-zts.so
       </IfModule>
   
       #
       # Cause the PHP interpreter to handle files with a .php extension.
       #
       AddHandler php5-script .php
       AddType text/html .php
   
       #
       # Add index.php to the list of files that will be served as directory
       # indexes.
       #
       DirectoryIndex index.php
   
       #
       # Uncomment the following line to allow PHP to pretty-print .phps
       # files as PHP source code:
       #
       #AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
       ```
   
 * Is it better to remove the comments or anything i should change ?
    If anyone 
   can help me out i wouldn’t mind giving my credentials to the VPS.

 * Hi ChristiNi,
 * I tried the tutorial and created a file but it is just displaying the content
   of the file as <? phpinfo(); ?>
 * Also all the files in the WordPress directory are showing up with the content.
 * I tried 755 on all directories and 644 on all files but still i get plain text
   when i go for
 * [http://www.gensparkmedia.com/wp-admin/install.php](http://www.gensparkmedia.com/wp-admin/install.php)
 * here is the file i made with phpinfo
 * [http://www.gensparkmedia.com/phpinfo.php](http://www.gensparkmedia.com/phpinfo.php)
 * What does it indicate ? PHP running or stopped ?

 * Hi Tim,
 * I tried contacting them numerous times but they aren’t so good at responding 
   to customer problems.
 * The blogs are to be installed on a VPS with CentOS on it. I tried restarting 
   the apache server but that didn’t help me either !
 * I don’t understand what steps i need to take further.

 * Hi ChristiNi,
 * Those threads are helpful to me. I tried some steps from them but now problem
   is redirected to PHP
 * I am getting PHP missing on the install.php even when it is installed on the 
   VPS
 * Can you suggest any remedy on that
 * These are the websites that we are trying to get installed
 * [http://www.gensparkmedia.com/wp-admin/install.php](http://www.gensparkmedia.com/wp-admin/install.php)
   
   [http://www.choicebasket.com/wp-admin/install.php](http://www.choicebasket.com/wp-admin/install.php)
 * Both give me the same error !
