File Not Found when running PHP with Nginx

Question

Recently I installed the latest version of Nginx and looks like I\'m having hard time running PHP with it.

Here is the configuration file I\'m using for the domain:<

I had the "file not found" problem, so I moved the "root" definition up into the "server" bracket to provide a default value for all the locations. You can always override this by giving any location it's own root.

server {
    root /usr/share/nginx/www;
    location / {
            #root /usr/share/nginx/www;
    }

    location ~ \.php$ {
            try_files $uri =404;
            fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
            fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
            fastcgi_index index.php;
            include fastcgi_params;
    }
}

Alternatively, I could have defined root in both my locations.
