I installed nginx 1.10.3 and php 5.5.38 as a development server on macOS 10.12.4
When I try a test php file in my browser the body is empty but the response headers seem ok:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK Server: nginx/1.10.3 Date: Wed, 29 Mar 2017 11:35:21 GMT Content-Type: text/html Transfer-Encoding: chunked Connection: keep-alive X-Powered-By: PHP/5.5.38
There are no errors in php-fpm.log or nginx/error.log
my nginx.conf has:
server { listen 80; server_name wordpress.bob; root /Users/mark/Sites/wordpress; include /usr/local/etc/nginx/global_restrictions.conf; include /usr/local/etc/nginx/wordpress.conf; location ~ \.php$ { try_files $uri =404; fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$; fastcgi_pass unix:/usr/local/var/run/php-www.sock; fastcgi_index index.php; include fastcgi_params; } } wordpress.bob is a local hostname for testing pointing to 127.0.0.1 in etc/hosts
php-fpm.conf has:
listen = '/usr/local/var/run/php-www.sock' Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

It's hard to help without the ability to read all the configuration files.
You just posted one, not the included ones nor php-fpm.conf. This is not a disapproval (a wall of configuration files is not quite appropriate in a question) but it's just to point out that the configuration file we "don't see" may differ depending on installation.
Anyway I see some differences from the configuration file I have on a server for a wordpress site.
Here are some hints considering that as you don't get any errors php-fpm is running and nginx can "communicate" to it via the socket (otherwise you would get a bad gateway error).
At the beginning...
server { listen 80; server_name wordpress.bob; root /Users/mark/Sites/wordpress; index index.php; # <-- ADD THIS Make sure in the included wordpress.conf you have
location / { try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args; } The last part...
location ~ \.php$ { fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$; fastcgi_buffer_size 128k; fastcgi_buffers 256 16k; fastcgi_busy_buffers_size 256k; fastcgi_temp_file_write_size 512k; fastcgi_intercept_errors on; fastcgi_max_temp_file_size 0; fastcgi_connect_timeout 3s; fastcgi_send_timeout 5s; fastcgi_read_timeout 5s; include fastcgi.conf; # <--- fastcgi.conf, NOT fastcgi_params fastcgi_pass /usr/local/var/run/php-www.sock; } The difference between fastcgi.conf and fastcgi_params (on my installation) is just one line:
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name; If this line is missing php code is not able to read $_SERVER['SCRIPT_FILENAME'] and (I think) this may break wordpress code resulting in empty output.
Finally make sure php-fpm worker processes have privileges to access /usr/local/var/run/php-www.sock
Usually the socket has the same owner:group of the workers.
The workers user and group is set in php-fpm.conf:
; Unix user/group of processes ; Note: The user is mandatory. If the group is not set, the default user's group ; will be used. user = ...... group = ...... Answers 2
To install NGINX with Homebrew :
$ brew install nginx Run NGINX :
$ sudo nginx Test the localhost nginx :
http://localhost:8080 NGINX configuration file should be in :
$ /usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf If you want to change the default port :
$ sudo nginx -s stop $ vim /usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf Change the : listen 8080; To : listen 80;
To save and Conf and start NGINX run :
$ sudo nginx Then, according to your problem, you might simply be pointing to a an empty PHP file. Try to print a phpinfo() then look for "DOCUMENT_ROOT" to see where it goes.
