I’m trying to setup phpmyadmin on my new ubuntu server running nginx. When I do domain.com/phpmyadmin/ it downloads a file consisting of php code etc while if I do domain.com/phpmyadmin/index.php it loads in correct. Got no idea why. This is my server block:
server {
listen 80;
listen [::]:80;
root /var/www/domain.com/html;
index index.php index.html index.htm index.nginx-debian.html;
server_name domain.com;
location ~ \.php$ {
include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.2-fpm.sock;
}
location ~ /\.ht {
deny all;
}
location / {
try_files $uri/ $uri =404;
}
}
and I have set ‘’‘cgi.fix_pathinfo=0’‘’.

Didn’t know file downloads were cached. Forgot to clear cache. Now I feel dumb cause ofcourse downloads are cached and I’m just dumb.
Oh I just realized it’s because I’ve linked phpmyadmin thru a symlink. Any way to fix the problem or is the best way to set root to the php folder instead?
is actually
Just tried to switch them around. Don’t know why just had a thought that that might matter.
