Nginx doesn't execute PHP. It passes each request destined for your blog (i.e. the locations you decide are "your blog") to another process that runs/is-running the PHP. Take a look here, and it might help: http://wiki.nginx.org/WordPress If you're still stuck, please have a google before asking more questions here. There are many, many, *many* articles out there, explaining how to get Nginx+PHP/WordPress working, and the config you posted above strongly suggests you've not read any of them yet! The Internet is your friend ... ;-) Jonathan _______________________________________________ nginx mailing list nginx@nginx.org http://mailman.nginx.org/mailman/listinfo/nginx
