Running an nginx server on macOS Catalina?

Question

Nginx

I follow this manual

in order brew install [email protected]
brew install nginx
brew services start nginx
localhost:8080 -> "Welcome to nginx!"
Everything works as it should , then

I make a folder for my project
/Users/user/Sites/yeticave/index.php I

edit nginx.conf
nano /usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf

at the end I add

server {
    listen       80;
    server_name  localhost;
    client_max_body_size 20M;
    root   /Users/zaza/Sites/yeticave;
    location / {
        index  index.php index.html index.htm;
    }
    location ~ \.php$ {
        fastcgi_pass   127.0.0.1:9000;
        fastcgi_index  index.php;
        # goes on same line:
        fastcgi_param  SCRIPT_FILENAME /Users/zaza/Sites/yeticave/$fastcgi_script_name;
        include        fastcgi_params;
    }
}

coming out

#error_log  logs/error.log  info;

            include        fastcgi_params;
        }
    }
}

I allow nginx to read the contents of the project
sudo chmod -R 755 /Users/USER/Sites/yeticave I

install xdebug
pecl install xdebug I

restart
sudo brew services restart nginx

and when I go to localhost/index.php -> Safari Can't Connect to the Server

what is done not this way?

Answer 1

In config:
root /Users/ zaza /Sites/yeticave;
Folder created:
/Users/ user /Sites/yeticave/index.php
Seems to need to be adjusted
