"No input file specified" on NGINX server in production

is the document root or .htaccess set correctly?

Can you show your site config in nginx?

Also be careful putting it in subdirectory. That will expose your env file to the web

PS. Actually it is LNMP. A is for apache :)

I don't know anything about Nginx, and where to show the document root, or what I would change in the .htaccess file.

@sinnbeck , I don't know where to find a site config in nginx, and I said my dev server was LAMP, but my production is Nginx (LNMP)

Also, again, the main site is working fine. Only the subdirectory is giving me an error.

Do you have admin rights (sudo) to the server or is it shared?

EDITED: Also, this is my .htaccess file:

It's a VPS. So I believe I have admin rights to a certain degree.

Also, as a side note, when you go to the subdomain (which points to the subfolder), it redirects to immediately login, which works. I see app.domain.com/login in the browser URL, but still get the error.

Your .htaccess may have no impact here, depending on how the host has the server set up. Ngionx can act as a static cache proxy for Apache or it can act as a HTTP server in it's own right. You need to find your Nginx config file, which will be in JSON format, perhaps your hosts knowlege base can help? The file will look something like this:

server {
    listen 80 default_server;

    root /var/www/html/foo/public;

    index index.php index.html index.htm;

    server_name foo.com www.foo.com;

    charset utf-8;

    location = /favicon.ico { log_not_found off; access_log off; }
    location = /robots.txt  { log_not_found off; access_log off; }

    location ~* \.(eot|otf|ttf|woff|woff2)$ {
        add_header Access-Control-Allow-Origin *;
    }

    location / {
        try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php$is_args$args;
    }

    location ~ \.php$ {
        fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
        fastcgi_pass app:9000;
        fastcgi_index index.php;
        include fastcgi_params;
        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
        fastcgi_param PATH_INFO $fastcgi_path_info;
    }

    error_page 404 /index.php;
}

I suspect the issue may be that the public directory in Laravel is not the server root but is actually /public, see line above:

root /var/www/html/foo/public;

If this is not set correctly then Nginx will look for an entry file (index.php) in the root of Laravel, which is not where it is found.

Actually, I found the issue in my .htaccess.

The "RewriteBase" line was from an old hosting company with a different subfolder structure. Also the "RewriteRule" line with the directory listed needed to be updated as well. Thanks all!
