I switched from Apache to Nginx. When I did that the Craft folder that was outside of the web root no longer was recognized. Checked around, dug into my .conf files and spent a boatload on this issue, no dice. Thinking it was ownership or folder permissions, but I changed /craft folder to 777, made no difference.

Once I brought back in the Craft directory under public_html it was all good. I would rather it be outside of that. Have any of you run Nginx and Craft together successfully with the folder being under public_html?

  • Were you getting a particular error or message? Did you adjust the $craftPath setting in the public index.php file?

  • No, I kept everything the same $craftPath = '../craft', when I moved the folder I changed it to $craftPath = './craft'. Error: Could not find your craft/ folder. Please ensure that $craftPath is set correctly

I further adjusted permissions on the folders again and made a copy (everything with the craft folder in /public_html was working fine), moved that copy back under the public root. Switched the directory call in index.php and it works now. Go figure, it was permissions after all.
