Next we have prepared a simple tutorial on how to install the NGINX web server with PHP-FPM in Raspbian. It takes a few minutes to prepare Raspberry Pi to launch your website. 1. Update/upgrade and a good habit is to install the time synchronization and postfix root@raspberrypi:~# apt-get update && apt-get -y upgrade root@raspberrypi:~# apt-get install postfix ntp ntpdate 2. Install NGINX, PHP-FPM and APC cache package root@raspberrypi:~# apt-get install nginx php5-fpm php-apc 3. Install MySQL server and PHPMyAdmin if needed root@raspberrypi:~# apt-get install mysql-client mysql-server php5-mysql phpmyadmin 4. Add group and user for your domain. First uid and gid is 10000 and home user (domain) directory is in /home/ root@raspberrypi:~# addgroup --gid 10000 group001 root@raspberrypi:~# adduser --home /home/mydomain.com --shell /dev/null --uid 10000 --gid 10000 --disabled-password --disabled-login --gecos '' user001 5. Create structure logs and web directory root@raspberrypi:~# mkdir /home/mydomain.com/logs # for Nginx logs root@raspberrypi:~# mkdir /home/mydomain.com/logs/php/ # for PHP logs root@raspberrypi:~# mkdir /home/mydomain.com/www # for your web page root@raspberrypi:~# mkdir /home/mydomain.com/tmp # for temp root@raspberrypi:~# mkdir /home/mydomain.com/sessions # for sessions root@raspberrypi:~# chown -R user001:group001 /home/mydomain.com/ 6. Add mydomain.com.conf to pool for your domain and edit it root@raspberrypi:~# cp /etc/php5/fpm/pool.d/www.conf /etc/php5/fpm/pool.d/mydomain.com.conf root@raspberrypi:~# nano /etc/php5/fpm/pool.d/mydomain.com.conf ; pool name ('www' here) [mydomain.com] ... ; Unix user/group of processes user = user001 group = group001 ... ; The address on which to accept FastCGI requests. listen = /var/run/php5-fpm-mydomain.com.sock ... ; Set permissions for unix socket, if one is used. In Linux, read/write listen.owner = user001 listen.group = group001 listen.mode = 0666 ... ; Default Value: nothing is defined by default except the values in php.ini ... ; add php.ini admin values php_admin_value[sendmail_path] = /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i -f [email protected] php_flag[display_errors] = off php_admin_value[error_log] = /home/mydomain.com/logs/php/fpm-php.www.log php_admin_flag[log_errors] = on php_admin_value[upload_tmp_dir] = /home/mydomain.com/tmp php_admin_value[session.save_path] = /home/mydomain.com/sessions php_admin_value[open_basedir] = /home/mydomain.com/www:/home/mydomain.com/tmp:/home/mydomain.com/sessions php_admin_value[mail.log] = /home/mydomain.com/logs/mail.log php_admin_value[memory_limit] = 64M php_admin_value[post_max_size] = 18M php_admin_value[max_execution_time] = 60 php_admin_value[allow_url_fopen] = Off php_admin_value[upload_max_filesize] = 18M php_admin_value[date.timezone] = Europe/Moscow
