Re: Ubuntu: nginx+php-cgi on a socket - till's blog

great that makes me feel dumb. problem corrected.. the path was incorrect. what a waste of time. another question though, is unix using a unix socket better for large files (200-400mb) and high bandwidth (~1.5gbps)?

i have a php script serving the downloads to users and while they download i make little updates to the db about the progress and bandwidth transferred. it also deals with authentication and such. i'm wondering about this because my server will push high volume of bandwidth. does anyone have any recommendations about this?

Actually, it's a problem with this setup. For some reason any text with a php extension gives me a "No input file specified." error.

Well, I followed these instructions and noticed that it worked, but it does not support query strings. Any data appended to the .php?... extension does not seem to be processed. I checked the fastcgi_params and QUERY_STRING is there and defined. Any clue?
