    I'm (clearly) not so good with some of the configuration changes needed to move from Apache to NGINX. One of them is where to put a SetEnv setting for a site.

    So in Apache, an .htaccess file sets the environment with

    Code:
    SetEnv CI_ENV development
    According to Google, I *think* I can set that with a fastcgi_param, but haven't tested it.

    Yes you use fastcgi_param if you want PHP-FPM to read the set environmental variable and not Nginx. If you want Nginx to read, use env variable Core functionality

    How in the heck did that not come up in my Google search? :dead:

    Hmm, that says I can only put it in main though. I will have multiple environments on the same server. Is the result the same no matter where it's set? If it matters, its obviously running PHP code.
