(http://example.org/) http://example.org/ )
this folder has some .html files. /manage folder on /manage (eg. (http://example.org/manage) http://example.org/manage ) in this case this folder contains Slim's PHP framework code - that means the index.php file is in public subfolder (eg. /var/www/mysite/manage/public/index.php) I've tried a lot of combinations such as server {
  listen 80 ;
  server_name example.org;
  error_log /usr/local/etc/nginx/logs/mysite/error.log;
  access_log /usr/local/etc/nginx/logs/mysite/access.log;
  root /var /www/mysite;

  location /manage {
    root $uri /manage/public ;

    try_files $uri /index.php$is _args$args ;
  }

  location / {
    root $uri /static /;

    index index.html;
  }

  location ~ \.php {

To access a path like /var/www/mysite/manage/public with a URI like /manage , you will need to use alias rather than root . See (http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_core_module.html#alias) this document for details. I am assuming that you need to run PHP from both roots, in which case you will need two location ~ \.php blocks, see example below. If you have no PHP within /var/www/mysite/static , you can delete the unused location block. For example: server {
    listen 80 ;
    server_name  example.org;
    error_log /usr/local/etc/nginx/logs/mysite/error.log;
    access_log /usr/local/etc/nginx/logs/mysite/access.log;

    root /var /www/mysite/static ;
    index index.html;

    location / {
    }
    location ~ \.php$ {
        try_files $uri =404 ;
        fastcgi_pass 127.0 .0.1 :9000 ; include fastcgi_params;
        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $request_filename ;
        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_NAME $fastcgi_script_name ;
    }

    location ^~ /manage {
        alias /var /www/mysite/manage/public ;
        index index.php; if (!-e $request_filename ) { rewrite ^ /manage/index.php last; }

        location ~ \.php$ { if (!-f $request_filename ) { return 404 ; }
            fastcgi_pass 127.0 .0.1 :9000 ; include fastcgi_params;
            fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $request_filename ;
            fastcgi_param SCRIPT_NAME $fastcgi_script_name ;
        }
    }
}   The ^~ modifier causes the prefix location to take precedence over regular expression locations at the same level. See (http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_core_module.html#location) this document for details. The alias and try_files directives are not together due to (https://trac.nginx.org/nginx/ticket/97) this long standing bug . Be aware of (https://www.nginx.com/resources/wiki/start/topics/depth/ifisevil/) this caution in the use of the if directive.
