404 documentation could be improved
tnorthcutt opened this issue · comments
When setting up a custom 404 page, in addition to following the docs, I had to add to my location
block as per this answer: https://serverfault.com/a/580038
My end result was:
location ~ \.php$ {
try_files $uri =404; // Added this line
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php/php7.2-fpm.sock;
fastcgi_index index.php;
include fastcgi_params;
}
Happy to PR an addition for this; to do so should I just edit this page and not worry about a build step, or something else?
This is specific to PHP, though; a server that's setup to serve only static HTML wouldn't need this.
