Nginx with php-fpm & mysql

This tutorial shows how you can install and run Magento 1.6.0.0 on a Debian Squeeze or Ubuntu 11.04 system that has nginx installed instead of Apache (LEMP = Linux + nginx (pronounced “engine x”) + MySQL + PHP). Magento is an open-source, feature-rich ecommerce platform; I will use the Magento Community Edition here which is licensed under an open source certified license (OSL v3.0). nginx is a HTTP server that uses much less resources than Apache and delivers pages a lot of faster, especially static files.

I want to install Magento in a vhost called www.example.com/example.com here with the document root /var/www/www.example.com/web.

Installing APC APC is a free and open PHP opcode cacher for caching and optimizing PHP intermediate code. It’s similar to other PHP opcode cachers, such as eAccelerator and XCache. It is strongly recommended to have one of these installed to speed up your PHP page.

APC can be installed as follows:

~# apt-get install php-apc

~# /etc/init.d/php5-fpm restart

~# netstat -tap

to find out the PID of the current spawn-fcgi process:

~# root@server1:~# netstat -tap Active Internet connections (servers and established) Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State PID/Program name tcp 0 0 *:sunrpc *:* LISTEN 734/portmap tcp 0 0 *:www *:* LISTEN 2987/nginx tcp 0 0 *:ssh *:* LISTEN 1531/sshd tcp 0 0 *:57174 *:* LISTEN 748/rpc.statd tcp 0 0 localhost.localdom:smtp *:* LISTEN 1507/exim4 tcp 0 0 localhost.localdom:9000 *:* LISTEN 1542/php5-cgi tcp 0 0 localhost.localdo:mysql *:* LISTEN 1168/mysqld tcp 0 52 server1.example.com:ssh 192.168.0.198:2462 ESTABLISHED 1557/0 tcp6 0 0 [::]:www [::]:* LISTEN 2987/nginx tcp6 0 0 [::]:ssh [::]:* LISTEN 1531/sshd tcp6 0 0 ip6-localhost:smtp [::]:* LISTEN 1507/exim4 root@server1:~#..[read more..]
