Hi there!
I’am trying to configure Nginx for 2 yii projects, frontend for users and admin for admins with only one domain (no sub domain). I need to configure it in a way such that mydomain.com should refer to frontend and mydomain.com/admin to admin. The problem is I’am being able to configure only one of them at a time, meaning I can use frontend or admin not both of them.
What I have tried
front.conf
server {
listen 80;
server_name api.maim.experiments.uz;
return 301 https://$server_name$request_uri;
}
server {
charset utf-8;
client_max_body_size 128M;
listen 443 ssl;
ssl_certificate_key privkey.pem;
ssl_certificate fullchain.pem;
ssl_protocols TLSv1.2;
set $host_path "/home/itschool/inha_dev/frontend";
server_name api.maim.experiments.uz;
root $host_path/web;
set $yii_bootstrap "index.php";
access_log /var/log/nginx/itschool-access.log;
error_log /var/log/nginx/itschool-error.log;
location / {
index index.html $yii_bootstrap;
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php;
}
location ~ ^/(protected|framework|themes/w+/views) {
deny all;
}
location ~ .(js|css|png|jpg|gif|swf|ico|pdf|mov|fla|zip|rar)$ {
try_files $uri =404;
}
location ~ .php$ {
set $fsn /index.php;
if (-f $document_root$fastcgi_script_name){
set $fsn $fastcgi_script_name;
}
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9002;
include fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fsn;
}
location ~ /.(ht|svn|git) {
deny all;
}
location ~* /. {
deny all;
access_log off;
log_not_found off;
}
}
back.conf
server {
listen 80;
server_name api.maim.experiments.uz;
return 301 https://$server_name$request_uri;
}
server {
charset utf-8;
client_max_body_size 128M;
listen 443 ssl;
ssl_certificate_key privkey.pem;
ssl_certificate fullchain.pem;
ssl_protocols TLSv1.2;
set $host_path "/home/itschool/inha_dev/backend";
server_name api.maim.experiments.uz;
root $host_path/web;
set $yii_bootstrap "index.php";
access_log /var/log/nginx/itschool-access.log;
error_log /var/log/nginx/itschool-error.log;
location ^~ /admin {
alias /home/itschool/inha_dev/backend/web;
if (!-e $request_filename) { rewrite ^ /admin/index.php last; }
location ~ .php$ {
if (!-f $request_filename) { return 404; }
include fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $request_filename;
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9002;
}
}
location ~ /.(ht|svn|git) {
deny all;
}
location ~* /. {
deny all;
access_log off;
log_not_found off;
}
}
I found some questions with answers but they didn’t work for me, please help.

One domain will lead all requests to one IP (server). Nginx will use the first
server
block matching server_name https://nginx.org/en/docs/http/request_processing.html so you need to put all configuration on one file and uselocation
to separate them.You can move
location ^~ /admin
at the beginning of thefront.conf
locations and play with roots;Or you can create a proxying config file that will contain just a little.
Something like that
Using the latter one you should change front & back configs to listen to other ports. Also, an SSL certificate was given for a domain, not URL. So you can use it only in the proxying config.
I have recently use similar configuration to support web application / mobile application and admin panel on single domain
I hope this could help you out. Below is the configuration
Also have a look in official document of Yii2 to setup yii2-app-advanced on single domain (Apache, Nginx).
CLICK HERE
One more thing that you need to know is if you want to change backend/web to admin then you also have to made some changes in Yii2 application.
If you follow some of the key instructions from option 1 of Yii2 Single Domain Apache and Nginx you should be able to accomplish what you want.
Per the referenced link, Option 1:
Assuming Linux OS
and set your nginx file
Not: See below link for the Option-2, if the above does not work:
