Nginx - wordpress config alongside page with api - php

Question

I have some site on Nginx with page and API for it. Location of html page is
var/www/mysite/mysite_rest
and location of api is
var/www/mysite/mysite_rest/api
The next configuration works fine for me:
server {
listen 80;
server_name example.com;
# return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
return 301 https://example.com;
rewrite ^ https://example.com$request_uri? permanent;
client_max_body_size 350M;
}
server {
listen 443 ssl http2;
server_name example.com;
charset UTF-8;
# certs sent to the client in SERVER HELLO are concatenated in
ssl_certificate
ssl_certificate /etc/ssl/example.crt;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/ssl/example.key;
ssl_session_cache shared:SSL:10m;
ssl_session_timeout 30m;
keepalive_timeout 70;
ssl_session_tickets off;
ssl_dhparam /etc/ssl/dhparam.pem;
ssl_protocols TLSv1 TLSv1.1 TLSv1.2;
ssl_prefer_server_ciphers off;
# ssl_stapling on;
ssl_trusted_certificate /etc/ssl/example.crt;
# resolver 8.8.8.8;
# HSTS (ngx_http_headers_module is required) (63072000 seconds)
add_header Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=63072000" always;
# add_header Strict-Transport-Security max-age=31536000 always;
add_header X-Frame-Options DENY;
# add_header Public-Key-Pins 'pin-sha256="base64+info1="; max-age=31536000'
always;
add_header X-Content-Type-Options nosniff;
add_header X-XSS-Protection "1; mode=block";
##
rewrite ^/(.*)/$ /$1 permanent;
rewrite ^/api/(.*)$ /api/index.php?_url=/$1 last;
rewrite ^/api$ /api/index.php?_url=/ last;
##
location / {
root /var/www/mysite/mysite_rest;
charset utf-8;
index index.php index.html;
}
location /api {
internal;
root /var/www/mysite/mysite_rest/api;
index index.php;
include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
# fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php7.1-fpm.sock;
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
# fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root/index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /var/www/mysite/mysite_rest/api/index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_NAME index.php;
fastcgi_param HTTPS on;
# fastcgi_param HTTP_HTTPS on;
fastcgi_param REQUEST_SCHEME https;
fastcgi_param SERVER_PORT 443;
}
}
And now I need to install wordpress alongside my site, I downloaded it and placed in
var/www/mysite/wp
folder, then added to Nginx conf the next line:
location /wp {
internal;
root /var/www/mysite/wp;
index index.php;
include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
# fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php7.1-fpm.sock;
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
# fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root/index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /var/www/mysite/wp/index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_NAME index.php;
# fastcgi_param HTTPS on;
fastcgi_param HTTP_HTTPS on;
fastcgi_param REQUEST_SCHEME https;
fastcgi_param SERVER_PORT 443;
}
The result of requesting url: example.com/wp is 404. What I'm doing wrong?
UPD1 When deleting "internal" the request rewrites on https://example.comindex.php/wp-admin/install.php
UPD2 Add the next lines for wordpressp location instead of previous:
location ^~ /wp {
root /var/www/mysite/mysite_rest;
index index.php index.html index.htm;
try_files $uri $uri/ /wp/index.php;
location ~ \.php {
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.*\.php)(.*)$;
include fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
fastcgi_param PATH_INFO $fastcgi_path_info;
fastcgi_param PATH_TRANSLATED $document_root$fastcgi_path_info;
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
}
This allowed me to run install, but than when I'm requesting example.com/wp it causes ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS . I can access /wp-login.php by manually request.

You have used the internal directive which prevents external access to the location. The root directive is wrong and you have no way to load WordPress static files.
You could try something like this:
location ^~ /wp {
root /var/www/mysite;
index index.php;
try_files $uri $uri/ /wp/index.php;
location ~ \.php$ {
include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $request_filename;
}
}
Don't forget to configure WordPress with the correct URL. See this document for details.
