Yeah, no problem; I knew what you meant.

Got it.

Yes, I ended up doing something like that:

  fastcgi_split_path_info ^/synchweb(/.+?\.php)(/.*)?$;

I think you'd want the "\." in yours before the "php", and then I think
the only meaningful difference between ours would be that yours would
match

  /my-app/.php

while mine would not because I used ".+?" to match one or more
reluctantly where you used ".*?" to match zero or more reluctantly.

I was aware of

  https://www.nginx.com/resources/wiki/start/topics/examples/phpfcgi/

which has a location of

  location ~ [^/]\.php(/|$) {

and a fastcgi_split_path_info of

  fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+?\.php)(/.*)$;

I've always wondered exactly what the idea was with starting that
location regex with "[^/]", though.  Why require the ".php" to be
preceded by a character other than "/"? That means it would match a
request of

  /foo.php

but not

  /.php

Is it because that's considered an invalid PHP file name?  Is it because
some PHP web apps uses a directory named ".php" as a private directory
that should not be served?  I don't know.

Ah, I see!  Thank you for pointing that out!  I like that better.

Yes, I could, but I was trying to make my php-fpm-realpath.conf reusable
for other apps which is why I was keeping those lines in it.  And, I
think I mentioned this earlier, but I changed them to use $realpath_root
instead of $document_root because of the symlinks and my desire to
support an atomic app deploy with no downtime and no nginx reload.

Thanks again!
