Configuring PHP for a particular web server or OS is part of that 
installation's configuration, not PHP itself.  I suggest you look at 
nginx documentation and/or for a group of forum related to nginx (or, in 
the case of Linux, your distro may have information. You'll get much 
better answers.,

There is no different of configuring userdir from configuring a normal 
location. You will need to configure for each file extension.

  }

  Why am I not getting  /usr/home/html/~doctor instead of /usr/home/doctor/html ?

I don't use nginx, and I /know/ that many websites recommend the above 
configuration change to enable "user" directories, but the "location" regexp 
looks wrong to me.

Consider the part that reads:
   ^/~(.+?)(/.*)?$
This is meant to break the "path" part of the given URL into two components: 
the users name, and the path component relative to the user's web directory. 
Parsing starts at the first slash of the URL path component,	^/
requires a tilde								~
takes the characters up to the first slash as $1		(.+?)
takes any remaining characters as $2				(/.*)?
and plugs them into the alias

Now, to me, the problem is the regex component for the $1 assignment.
The brackets are regex metasymbols that group characters together; they are 
there to indicate that the regex within the brackets will be taken as one, 
and (in this case) substituted for $1. We can, for now, ignore the brackets, 
leaving
  .+?
The
  .+
says that we require one or more (+) characters of any value (.), so
  .+
matches a name.
But, what does the
  ?
signify.
It, too, is a metacharacter, and matches a count of zero or one of the 
preceding character. But, there is no "preceding character" that it can 
apply to. It looks /odd/ to me.

So, my suggestion is that the common instructions are incorrect, in that
the regex for $1 is malformed and won't work as expected.

You could try a slightly different regex:
  ^/~(.+)(/.*)?$
as in
  location ~ ^/~(.+)(/.*)?$ {
  alias /usr/home/$1/html/$2;

I don't guarantee this to work, but it makes more sense to me, and if it 
fails then you are no further in trouble than you already are.

Your regexp is incorrect, as Lew pointed out, but sadly his regexp will 
have same kind of issue and even if it had been working, there had been 
problem with potentially access directories that are not to ment to be 
served.

The regexp you are looking for is: ^/~([\w-]*)(/.*)?$

Next time you have issues with regexp in nginx, take a look at 
https://www.regextester.com/94055 and use the substitution section to 
see what values you really get.


>     alias /usr/home/$1/html/$2;
>    Why am I not getting  /usr/home/html/~doctor instead of /usr/home/doctor/html ?

I don't think you should have the tilde in the directory name, if you 
want to change the order, then you have to change the order in your 
alias, $1 is the username, the $2 is the path, so if you have 
/user/home/html directory filled with users web directories, tne you 
should have /usr/home/html/$1/$2. If you need to keep the tilde in the 
username, then you have to move the tilde in the regexp so it's inside 
the parentheses, but I recommend against that.

This looks really messy and another potential error source.

     location ~ \.php$ {
         try_files $uri =404;
         include         fastcgi_params;
         fastcgi_pass    unix:/var/run/php-fpm.sock;
         fastcgi_index   index.php;
     }

that should be neater and less prone to fail.

You have to wonder why apache is viewed as bloatware
yet converting to nginx is not that straight forword

different. Apache is simple to configure the defaults while nginx gives 
you a lot more freedom at the cost of more difficult configurations.
