I've got a really old website I'd like try running on NGINX instead of Apache. This site consists of many flat HTML files with sporadic PHP SSIs, such as:

<!--#include virtual="/some_file.php" -->

How does does the NGINX HttpSsiModule handle these includes when they're dynamic? In the module docs, it says:

The distinction between "file" and "virtual" is mostly historical. "file" is
the same as "virtual" with implied "wait" option.

This doesn't get into how I am supposed to configure the PHP execution. Using the above #include, is the implication here that I am supposed to set up a location that matches /some_file.php and is configured to fastcgi over to php-fpm (or something else like that)?

I missed a line in the docs that says: `The target of "file" or "virtual" must be a location in the server configuration.` – Dmitry Minkovsky May 21 '13 at 01:49

Once you have it working, be sure to come back and answer your own question! – Michael Hampton May 21 '13 at 01:52
Deleted my answer as I though this was Apache specific but it's not. – Danack May 21 '13 at 21:05
