Web server configuration

Recommended Apache configuration
httpd.conf file in Apache or use the following configurations in a virtual host configuration file. Note that you should replace path / to / basic / web actual basic / web directory.

# 设置文档根目录为 "basic/web"
DocumentRoot "path/to/basic/web"

<Directory "path/to/basic/web">
    # 开启 mod_rewrite 用于美化 URL 功能的支持（译注：对应 pretty URL 选项）
    RewriteEngine on
    # 如果请求的是真实存在的文件或目录，直接访问
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    # 如果请求的不是真实文件或目录，分发请求至 index.php
    RewriteRule . index.php

    # if $showScriptName is false in UrlManager, do not allow accessing URLs with script name
    RewriteRule ^index.php/ - [L,R=404]

    # ...其它设置...
</Directory>

Recommended Nginx configuration
in order to use Nginx, you should have PHP installed as the FPM SAPI. You can use the following Nginx configuration, will replace path / to / basic / web actual basic / web directory, mysite.local replaced by the actual name of the host to provide services.

server {
    charset utf-8;
    client_max_body_size 128M;

    listen 80; ## listen for ipv4
    #listen [::]:80 default_server ipv6only=on; ## listen for ipv6

    server_name mysite.test;
    root        /path/to/basic/web;
    index       index.php;

    access_log  /path/to/basic/log/access.log;
    error_log   /path/to/basic/log/error.log;

    location / {
        # Redirect everything that isn't a real file to index.php
        try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php$is_args$args;
    }

    # uncomment to avoid processing of calls to non-existing static files by Yii
    #location ~ \.(js|css|png|jpg|gif|swf|ico|pdf|mov|fla|zip|rar)$ {
    #    try_files $uri =404;
    #}
    #error_page 404 /404.html;

    # deny accessing php files for the /assets directory
    location ~ ^/assets/.*\.php$ {
        deny all;
    }

    location ~ \.php$ {
        include fastcgi_params;
        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
        fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
        #fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;
        try_files $uri =404;
    }

    location ~* /\. {
        deny all;
    }
}

When using this configuration, you should also set cgi.fix_pathinfo = 0 in the php.ini file, you can avoid a lot of unnecessary off the stat () system call.
