php5-fpm broken with nginx 1.8 on wheezy

i just installed nginx 1.8 and my site broke.

I found that from the new fastcgi_params file, SCRIPT_FILENAME is missing which is required for fpm.

As i see here:

Line 47 in bb80b41

fastcgi_params whitespace, removed SCRIPT_FILENAME

debian package maintainers removed the this distro-extra-included line from the default config which now synced with dotdeb-nginx.

So there is two way of solving this problem:
2) Always define SCRIPT_FILENAME parameter in your config, like this:

    location ~ ^/index\.php(/|$) {
            fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(.*)$;
            fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;
            fastcgi_index index.php;
            include fastcgi_params;
            fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $request_filename;
    }

Put back the line

fastcgi_param   SCRIPT_FILENAME         $request_filename;

to your fastcgi_params file.

Recommended solution is to switch from fastcgi_params to fastcgi.conf

Debian introduce fastcgi.conf in release 1.6.1 (or 1.6.2 I can't remember). So the solution is to switch from fastcgi_params to fastcgi.conf.

Migrating from fastcgi_params to fastcgi.conf fixes the problem.

where do I find this fastcgi.conf ?

@clarkk Should be already there.
