Put that in a php file, inside the html directory & use a browser to see it.

Hey! It’s probably because the location directive for .php-files wasn’t put in the nginx.conf file. If you input the following code below the other location directives (like the ‘/’-one) it should work:

location ~ \.php$ {
try_files $uri =404;
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php-fpm/php-fpm.sock;
fastcgi_index index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
include fastcgi_params;
}

Good luck! 😉

To test installation create a file /usr/share/nginx/html/info.php with this content “ If you open the page in your browser, and it download the page instead of showing content, then you have to comment in /etc/nginx/nginx.conf the "server" block below the line "include /etc/nginx/conf.d/*.conf;"
Save, restart nginx and its solved.
