### Notes & Warnings
- If you're using php5, change all instances of `php7.0-fpm` to `php5-fpm` and change `/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock` to `/var/run/php5-fpm.sock`
### Basic requirements
1. Stop default lighttpd
`service lighttpd stop`
2. Install necessary packages
`apt-get -y install nginx php7.0-fpm php7.0-zip apache2-utils`
3. Disable lighttpd at startup
`systemctl disable lighttpd`
4. Enable php7.0-fpm at startup
`systemctl enable php7.0-fpm`
5. Enable nginx at startup
`systemctl enable nginx`
6. Edit `/etc/nginx/sites-available/default` to:
```
server {
listen 80 default_server;
listen [::]:80 default_server;
root /var/www/html;
server_name _;
autoindex off;
index pihole/index.php index.php index.html index.htm;
location / {
expires max;
try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
}
location ~ \.php$ {
include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock;
auth_basic "Restricted"; #For Basic Auth
auth_basic_user_file /etc/nginx/.htpasswd; #For Basic Auth
}
location /*.js {
index pihole/index.js;
auth_basic "Restricted"; #For Basic Auth
auth_basic_user_file /etc/nginx/.htpasswd; #For Basic Auth
}
location /admin {
root /var/www/html;
index index.php index.html index.htm;
auth_basic "Restricted"; #For Basic Auth
auth_basic_user_file /etc/nginx/.htpasswd; #For Basic Auth
}
location ~ /\.ht {
deny all;
}
}
```
7. Create username for authentication for the admin - we don't want other people in our network change our black and whitelist ;)
`htpasswd -c /etc/nginx/.htpasswd exampleuser`
8. Change ownership of html directory to nginx user
`chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www/html`
9. Make sure html directory is writable
`chmod -R 755 /var/www/html`
10. Start php7.0-fpm daemon
`service php7.0-fpm start`
11. Start nginx webserver
`service nginx start`
### Optional configuration
- If you want to use your custom domain to access admin page (e.g.: `http://mydomain.internal/admin/settings.php` instead of `http://pi.hole/admin/settings.php`), make sure `mydomain.internal` is assigned to `server_name` in `/etc/nginx/sites-available/default`. E.g.: `server_name mydomain.internal;`
- If you want to use block page for any blocked domain subpage (aka Nginx 404), add this to Pi-hole server block in your Nginx configuration file:
```
error_page 404 /pihole/index.php
```
- When using nginx to serve Pi-hole, Let's Encrypt can be used to directly configure nginx. Make sure to use your hostname instead of _ in `server_name _;` line above.
```
add-apt-repository ppa:certbot/certbot
apt-get install certbot python-certbot-nginx
certbot --nginx -m "$email" -d "$domain" -n --agree-tos --no-eff-email
```
