This is my first experience deploying a meteor app to my own server (Linux Ubuntu 14.04). Following the instruction in https://www.phusionpassenger.com/library/deploy/nginx/deploy/meteor/ for setting up a server with subdirectories for different apps I created the following server configuration in /etc/nginx/sites-available/default.conf (link added in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled):
server {
listen 80;
root /var/www/html;
server_name myserver.edu;
passenger_enabled on;
# index.html is a welcome html file in the root directory
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.html;
}
# site1 is a website hosted on this server
location /site1 {
index index.php;
}
location ~ ^/app1(/.*|$) {
alias /var/www/html/app1/bundle/programs/web.browser/app$1; # public folder of app1
passenger_base_uri /app1;
passenger_app_root /var/www/html/app1/bundle;
passenger_document_root /var/www/html/app1/bundle/programs/web.browser/app;
# Turn on Passenger
passenger_enabled on;
# Tell Passenger that your app is a Meteor app
passenger_app_type node;
passenger_startup_file main.js;
# Tell your app where MongoDB is
passenger_env_var MONGO_URL mongodb://localhost:27017/meteor;
# Tell your app what its root URL is
passenger_env_var ROOT_URL http://myserver.edu;
}
location ~ \.php$ {
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;
fastcgi_index index.php;
include fastcgi.conf;
}
location /doc/ {
alias /usr/share/doc/;
autoindex on;
allow 127.0.0.1;
deny all;
}
location ~/\.ht {
deny all;
}
}
Nginx restarts and Passenger loads without any errors in the error log (/var/log/nginx/error.log). Entering the url <myserver.edu/app1> in a web browser loads a blank page. The browser web console shows 3 alerts:
1. Did not parse stylesheet at 'http://myserver.edu/8b9512ae31c83878e2fe79f333d95b9a54ffd187.css?meteor_css_resource=true' because non CSS MIME types are not allowed in strict mode.
2. Did not parse stylesheet at 'http://myserver.edu/1e14facc176dd0d8078423545ba184b95cc9ece4.css?meteor_css_resource=true' because non CSS MIME types are not allowed in strict mode.
3. SyntaxError: Unexpected token '<' # this is in the <html> tag on index.html
It appears that Passenger is not finding the html generated by the app. Are there configuration errors in the server settings?

Please describe your app's directory structure. Also are you actually using php? If not remove the php configs.
