nginx + codeigniter configuration not working on CentOS 7?

I am new on nginx and try to find the issue on StackOverflow but not found the exact one on forums. After successful installation of nginx, MySQL and php-fpm I test the php.info that was working fine.

I am moving the CodeIgniter project to the nginx from apache server. I edit the nginx.conf file that has code

server {
    listen       80;
    server_name  173.249.40.xxx;

    # note that these lines are originally from the "location /" block
    root   /usr/share/nginx/html/ci;
    index index.html index.htm index.php;

    location /ci {
        try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php;
    }        

    error_page 404 /404.html;
    error_page 500 502 503 504 /50x.html;
    location = /50x.html {
        root /usr/share/nginx/html;
    }

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

it was working fine for php.info like my path is http://173.249.40.xxx/ci/info.php but not working for CodeIgniter controller name like http://173.249.40.xxx/ci/index.php/Welcome when called. I try from https://www.nginx.com/resources/wiki/start/topics/recipes/codeigniter/# for CodeIgniter application but it also not work for me. The CodeIgniter application path is '/usr/share/nginx/html/ci/;'

Please suggest me something. how can I fix it?

The codeigniter has it's own routing mechanism so in order to work you need from web server to pass everything you can't find to the index.php not to toss 404 messages.

So try to change your location / {...} block to the following:

location /ci/ {
            # Check if a file or directory index file exists, else route it to index.php.
            try_files $uri $uri/ /ci/index.php;
    }

The above it's taken from the link in your question.
