* [PHP](https://php.net) (7.0 or later)
* PHP-intl (bundled with PHP)
* a webserver (apache or nginx are recommended)
-!!! danger "Important"
- Postgresql 12+ and Postgis 3.0+ are known to cause performance issues. They are
- not recommended for a production installation at the moment.
-
For running continuous updates:
* [pyosmium](https://osmcode.org/pyosmium/) (with Python 3)
Make sure your Apache configuration contains the required permissions for the
directory and create an alias:
- <Directory "/srv/nominatim/build/website">
- Options FollowSymLinks MultiViews
- AddType text/html .php
- DirectoryIndex search.php
- Require all granted
- </Directory>
- Alias /nominatim /srv/nominatim/build/website
+``` apache
+<Directory "/srv/nominatim/build/website">
+ Options FollowSymLinks MultiViews
+ AddType text/html .php
+ DirectoryIndex search.php
+ Require all granted
+</Directory>
+Alias /nominatim /srv/nominatim/build/website
+```
`/srv/nominatim/build` should be replaced with the location of your
build directory.
Tell nginx that php files are special and to fastcgi_pass to the php-fpm
unix socket by adding the location definition to the default configuration.
- root /srv/nominatim/build/website;
- index search.php index.html;
- location ~ [^/]\.php(/|$) {
- fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+?\.php)(/.*)$;
- if (!-f $document_root$fastcgi_script_name) {
- return 404;
- }
- fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;
- fastcgi_index search.php;
- include fastcgi.conf;
+``` nginx
+root /srv/nominatim/build/website;
+index search.php;
+location / {
+ try_files $uri $uri/ @php;
+}
+
+location @php {
+ fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME "$document_root$uri.php";
+ fastcgi_param PATH_TRANSLATED "$document_root$uri.php";
+ fastcgi_param QUERY_STRING $args;
+ fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php/php7.3-fpm.sock;
+ fastcgi_index index.php;
+ include fastcgi_params;
+}
+
+location ~ [^/]\.php(/|$) {
+ fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+?\.php)(/.*)$;
+ if (!-f $document_root$fastcgi_script_name) {
+ return 404;
}
+ fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php7.3-fpm.sock;
+ fastcgi_index search.php;
+ include fastcgi.conf;
+}
+```
Restart the nginx and php5-fpm services and the website should now be available
at `http://localhost/`.
-Now continue with [importing the database](Import-and-Update.md).
