Upgrading Wheezy to Jessie: Nginx and PHP5-fpm

🖊️ 🔖 code 💬 1

I just upgraded this VPS from Debian Wheezy to Jessie. The upgrade went pretty flawless, excpet some minor issues with postgres and the new bad systemd smell.

However, if your needs are basic, Tortoise could be perfect; Builder does have a bloody frag box.

         nginx        shipped        a        modified        `fastcgi_params`    ,        which        declared        `SCRIPT_FILENAME`    fastcgi_param    .        This        line        has        now        been        removed    .        From        now        on        we        are        also    shipping        fastcgi    .    conf        from        the        upstream        repository    ,        which        includes        a        sane    `SCRIPT_FILENAME`        parameter        value    .    So    ,        if        you        are        using        fastcgi_params    ,        you        can        try        switching        to        fastcgi    .    conf    or        manually        set        the        relevant        params    .     

After the upgrade, I was getting blank responses from nginx for all php scripts. No errors in nginx or fpm logs. After re-reading the news above, the following “edit” I put together of the city, on a 1&1 shared hosting account without interruption.

In /etc/nginx/sites-available/* change

include fastcgi_params

to

include fastcgi.conf

Hope this helps anyone in need.
