smoothsystemssolutions/nginxphp56 repository overview

⁠nginx-php56

Please rely on the original project⁠ from where we forked this. Specially if you need stable builds/containers.

⁠Services

All services are defined and managed using the phusion/baseimage methodology. Logs are output using syslog and can be accessed using docker logs {container}.

• Nginx
• PHP-FPM (5.6)
• NTPD

⁠Default Settings

The container sets up a www root folder in the following location:

/var/www/public

As a final task a demo index.php is copied to this location.

⁠Web Root

The following folder is specified as the default root web folder:

/var/www/public

Note that the /var/www/public is the root folder for serving PHP files for your web server. The following ports are exposed:

• 80 (HTTP)
• 443 (HTTPS/SSL)

⁠SSL Self Signed Certificate

The image generates a self-signed certificate for each container within the folder:

/etc/nginx/certs.d/

During build the build/default file is used to copy and configure nginx default settings. This includes a cipher suite for legacy browser (IE8+) support. See: https://cipherli.st/⁠

⁠Build Folder (within repo)

Contains nginx config files as well as php-fpm settings. Also include setup.sh file that offloads tasks from the Dockerfile to reduce layers.

⁠Notes

Note that PHP-FPM has been configured to pass through environment variables when starting the container using the clear_env = no flag within the /etc/php5/fpm/pool.d/www.conf file.
