Magento 2.2.6 NGINX add additional location

[gennady_smirnov]

Hello there and greetings,

i'm out to find solution for my problem. I'm installing 2.2.6 CE and using 2 NGINX servers cluster suited with HAProxy above it - one common IP and it looks great and perfomance ok.

I was used nginx.conf.sample which is going inside distro.

Web setup version didn't worked ok, but i've installed it via cmd.

Now i'm faced a problem. I'm installing commercial theme (my support at theme dev ended and i won't renew it). By manual i should copy theme files to magento root folder, backup everything and then access theme installation folder with browser like this:

https://abc.com/themesetup

The problem is that all magento pages are works ok, but when i'm accessing this address, i'm getting 404 Error.

File permissions are ok, folder owner also ok. So i think i have to add location to nginx.conf.sample for this directory, but i have no idea how to do that - i was trying different version of location, but all the time i'm getting 404. I was checked folder contents - there is index.php and so on.

In nginx logs i can see the follow:

[12/Nov/2018:04:39:40 +0300] "GET /setup/themesetup HTTP/2.0" 404 513 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:63.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/63.0"

I was figured out that issue by myseld, maybe somebody will need such solution.

Just add such block in nginx.conf.sample after #setup section:

# PHP entry point for THEME application
location /themesetup {
    root $MAGE_ROOT;
    location ~ ^/themesetup/index.php {

        ### This fixes the problem:
        fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+?\.php)(/.*)$;
        ################################

        fastcgi_pass   fastcgi_backend;
        fastcgi_index  index.php;
        fastcgi_param  SCRIPT_FILENAME  $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
        include        fastcgi_params;
    }

    location ~ ^/themesetup/(?!pub/). {
        deny all;
    }

    location ~ ^/themesetup/pub/ {
        add_header X-Frame-Options "SAMEORIGIN";
    }
}                

Also i was looking for fix when you using NGINX and setup won't run via web - it was in issues in old Magento github, but it lost in time, looks like, so you have to change #setup section to get it working:

location /setup {
    root $MAGE_ROOT;
    location ~ ^/setup/index.php {

        ### This fixes the problem:
        fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+?\.php)(/.*)$;
        ################################

        fastcgi_pass   fastcgi_backend;
        fastcgi_index  index.php;
        fastcgi_param  SCRIPT_FILENAME  $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
        include        fastcgi_params;
        fastcgi_read_timeout 600s;
        fastcgi_connect_timeout 600s;

    }

    location ~ ^/setup/(?!pub/). {
        deny all;
    }

    location ~ ^/setup/pub/ {
        add_header X-Frame-Options "SAMEORIGIN";
    }
}

After you change it on code part above - restart nginx and be happy.
