Moodle 3.0 – CSS and Javascript don’t load – Requests to NGINX aren’t compatible with the real paths

My config:

• Ubuntu 14.04
• Nginx 1.4.6
• PHP 5.5.9
• Moodle 3.0

I’ve completed the Moodle 3.0 installation through the browser and there is no css or javascript loaded. This is NGINX error log:

It seems that the path is considering some .php files to be directories. This is my server config:

server {
    listen      8080;
    server_name localhost;

    # Root #
    root /var/www/html/moodle/;
    index index.php index.html index.htm;

    location ~ \.php$ {
        if (!-f $document_root$fastcgi_script_name) {
            rewrite ^ 404;
        }
        include fastcgi_params;
        fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
        fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;
        fastcgi_index index.php;
        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
    }
}

I have already tried these solutions:

Solution 1

Solution 2

They didn’t work…

Please add below configuration code on your server part of nginx.conf file.

location / {
             root /var/www/yourwebsite.com;
             index index.php index.html index.htm;

             # moodle rewrite rules
             rewrite ^/(.*.php)(/)(.*)$ /$1?file=/$3 last;
          }

      # php parsing
      location ~ .php$ {
                         root /var/www/yourwebsite.com;
                         try_files $uri =404;
                         fastcgi_pass unix:/tmp/php5-fpm.sock;
                         fastcgi_index index.php;
                         fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
                          include fastcgi_params;
                          fastcgi_buffer_size 128k;
                          fastcgi_buffers 256 4k;
                          fastcgi_busy_buffers_size 256k;
                          fastcgi_temp_file_write_size 256k;

               }
