nginx and apache

Thanks, good to know that I can differentiate how content is served inside a single app. But this reply only partly to my question: can PHP inside and app read and write everywhere inside the plan (by use of the filesystem path) or is it confined inside its app space?

I'm sorry I've missed that. PHP processes are running as your user so it has read and write permissions everywhere you have.

Perfect. Thanks!

Sorry, I need to specify a new case about this question:

I have created a new application and created a symbolic link to set the document root in a subfolder:

|--myapp
. |--private folder (code and configuration files)
. |--public folder (document root for my domain)

This public folder will contain the public PHP files and any static content and will be therefore managed by Apache. If I made a subfolder of it for all the static content, may I let it be managed by Nginx? It should be:

|--myapp
. |--private folder (code and configuration files)
. |--public folder (document root for my domain - managed by Apache)
... |--php folder (other PHP pages, still managed by Apache)
... |--static folder (images, js, css to be managed by Nginx)

Is it possible to set a symbolic link to be managed by Nginx to a subfolder of another symbolik link managed by Apache?

Thanks and regards
Roberto

It should work. If you run into trouble submit a support ticket indicating which website configuration is failing and we will take a look at it with live data.
