Nginx yii2 configuration – CentOS

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 use location to separate them.
    You can move location ^~ /admin at the beginning of the front.conf locations and play with roots;
    Or you can create a proxying config file that will contain just a little.
    Something like that

    location /admin {
    proxy_pass http://localhost:8001;
}
location / {
    proxy_pass http://localhost:8002;
}

    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

    server {
        listen 80;

        set $root /var/www/html/application;

        #here we go
        #if backend not found in url then set root url
        if ($uri !~ "^(.*)/(backend)(.*)") {
            set $root /var/www/html/application/frontend/web;
        }

        # when request is coming from mobile then display mobile site
        # you don't need this one, I just written in order to explain the mobile application navigation.
        if ($http_user_agent ~* "android|blackberry|googlebot-mobile|iemobile|ipad|iphone|ipod|opera mobile|palmos|webos") {
            set $root /var/www/html/application/mobile/web;
        }

        root $root;

        index index.php index.html index.htm index.nginx-debian.html;
        server_name your_domain;

        location ~ .php$ {
                include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
                fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock;
        }

        location / {
            index  index.html index.php;
            if (!-e $request_filename){
                rewrite ^/(.*) /index.php?r=$1 last;
            }
        }

        location ~ /.ht {
                deny all;
        }
}

    Also have a look in official document of Yii2 to setup yii2-app-advanced on single domain (Apache, Nginx).

    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

    cd /path/to/project/frontend/web
ln -s ../../backend/web backend

    and set your nginx file

    server {
    charset utf-8;
    client_max_body_size 128M;

    listen 80; ## listen for ipv4
    #listen [::]:80 default_server ipv6only=on; ## listen for ipv6

    server_name api.maim.experiments.uz;
    root        /home/itschool/inha_dev/frontend/web;
    index       index.php;

    access_log  /var/log/nginx/itschool-access.log;
    error_log   /var/log/nginx/itschool-error.log;

    location / {
        # Redirect everything that isn't a real file to index.php
        try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php$is_args$args;
    }

    # uncomment to avoid processing of calls to non-existing static files by Yii
    #location ~ .(js|css|png|jpg|gif|swf|ico|pdf|mov|fla|zip|rar)$ {
    #    try_files $uri =404;
    #}
    #error_page 404 /404.html;

    # deny accessing php files for the /assets directory
    location ~ ^/assets/.*.php$ {
        deny all;
    }

    location ~ .php$ {
        include fastcgi_params;
        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
        fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
        #fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;
        try_files $uri =404;
    }

    location ~* /. {
        deny all;
    }
}

    Not: See below link for the Option-2, if the above does not work:
