I have a problem setting up uWSGI+piwik using nginx. My configuration follows this blog entry. My uwsgi ini file looks like this
[uwsgi]
plugins = php
chown-socket = www-data:www-data
uid = piwik
gid = piwik
processes = 1
and my nginx config
server {
listen 80;
root /var/www/piwik;
server_name my.domain.com;
index piwik.php;
# For administrative access
location = /index.php {
include uwsgi_params;
uwsgi_modifier1 14;
uwsgi_pass unix:/var/run/uwsgi/app/piwik/socket;
allow 127.0.0.1; # only via ssh tunnel
deny all;
}
# For public access
location = /piwik.php {
include uwsgi_params;
uwsgi_modifier1 14;
uwsgi_pass unix:/var/run/uwsgi/app/piwik/socket;
}
# Any other attempt to access PHP files is forbidden
location ~* ^.+\.php$ {
return 403;
}
# Redirect to the root if attempting to access a txt file.
location ~* (?:DESIGN|(?:gpl|README|LICENSE)[^.]*|LEGALNOTICE)(?:\.txt)*$ {
return 302 /;
}
# Disallow access to several helper files.
location ~* \.(?:bat|html?|git|ini|sh|svn[^.]*|txt|tpl|xml)$ {
return 404;
}
# Disallow access to directories
location ~ ^/(config|core|lang|misc|tmp)/ {
deny all;
}
}
The log file contains this, which indicates the error:
Tue Aug 25 15:34:34 2015 - PHP Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Exception' with message 'The configuration file {/var/www/piwik/config/config.ini.php} has not been found or could not be read.' in /var/www/piwik/core/Application/Kernel/EnvironmentValidator.php:64

[pid: 23656|app: -1|req: -1/3] 109.90.112.120 () {36 vars in 567 bytes} [Tue Aug 25 15:34:34 2015] GET / => generated 0 bytes in 58 msecs (HTTP/1.1 500) 1 headers in 78 bytes (0 switches on core 0)
When I open the page with a browser a log entry like this is generated and I see a blank page (makes sense with 0 generated bytes). The problem is that the expected Piwik install script does not start. Instead an exception is thrown. I tried to change /var/www/piwik/core/Application/Kernel/EnvironmentValidator.php to manually trigger the setup but did not succeed. Do you have any ideas?
