Nginx Different Domains on Same IP

berkayk picture berkayk · Aug 2, 2012 · Viewed 111k times · Source

I would like to host 2 different domains in the same server using nginx. I redirected both domains to this host via @ property. Although I configure 2 different server blocks, whenever I try to access second domain, it redirects to first one.

Here is my config.

server {
    listen      www.domain1.com:80;
    access_log  /var/log/nginx/host.domain1.access.log  main;
    root /var/www/domain1;
    server_name www.domain1.com;

    location ~ \.php$ {
        # Security: must set cgi.fixpathinfo to 0 in php.ini!
        fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
        fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
        fastcgi_index index.php;
        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME         $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
        fastcgi_param PATH_INFO $fastcgi_path_info;
        include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
    }
}

server {
    listen       www.domain2.com:80;
    access_log  /var/log/nginx/host.domain2.access.log  main;
    root /var/www/domain2;
    server_name www.domain2.com;

    location ~ \.php$ {
        # Security: must set cgi.fixpathinfo to 0 in php.ini!
        fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
        fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
        fastcgi_index index.php;
        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME         $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
        fastcgi_param PATH_INFO $fastcgi_path_info;
        include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
    }
}

How can I fix this? Thanks.

Your "listen" directives are wrong. See this page: http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/server_names.html.

They should be

server {
    listen      80;
    server_name www.domain1.com;
    root /var/www/domain1;
}

server {
    listen       80;
    server_name www.domain2.com;
    root /var/www/domain2;
}

Note, I have only included the relevant lines. Everything else looked okay but I just deleted it for clarity. To test it you might want to try serving a text file from each server first before actually serving php. That's why I left the 'root' directive in there.
