How to correctly link php-fpm and Nginx Docker containers?

Question

I am trying to link 2 separate containers:

• nginx:latest
• php:fpm

The problem is that php scripts do not work. Perhaps the php-fpm config

Answer 1

I think we also need to give the fpm container the volume, dont we? So =>

fpm:
    image: php:fpm
    volumes:
        - ./:/var/www/test/

If i dont do this, i run into this exception when firing a request, as fpm cannot find requested file:

[error] 6#6: *4 FastCGI sent in stderr: "Primary script unknown" while reading response header from upstream, client: 172.17.42.1, server: localhost, request: "GET / HTTP/1.1", upstream: "fastcgi://172.17.0.81:9000", host: "localhost"
