Digital Ocean Ubuntu 18.04 VPS running Nginx 1.17.10 + PHP-FPM 7.3. I am unable to figure out how to properly run PHP files (everything else runs fine.) The php files produce Nginx's 404 not found page. Nginx error log only shows "signal process started." I restart nginx + fpm after every change. I have looked at practically every StackOverflow question related to this and have tried all sorts of variations of configurations. I would appreciate any input on this situation. (domain names and IPs are changed to example.com and 127.0.0.1 for sake of anonymity.)

php.ini
Default php.ini file for php fpm 7.3 except for this change I made (uncommented it):
cgi.fix_pathinfo=1
www.conf
Included the main portion of it. Anything not included is default.
; Start a new pool named 'www'.
; the variable $pool can be used in any directive and will be replaced by the
; pool name ('www' here)
[www]
; Per pool prefix
; It only applies on the following directives:
; - 'access.log'
; - 'slowlog'
; - 'listen' (unixsocket)
; - 'chroot'
; - 'chdir'
; - 'php_values'
; - 'php_admin_values'
; When not set, the global prefix (or /usr) applies instead.
; Note: This directive can also be relative to the global prefix.
; Default Value: none
;prefix = /path/to/pools/$pool
; Unix user/group of processes
; Note: The user is mandatory. If the group is not set, the default user's group
; will be used.
user = www-data
group = www-data
; The address on which to accept FastCGI requests.
; Valid syntaxes are:
; 'ip.add.re.ss:port' - to listen on a TCP socket to a specific IPv4 address on
; a specific port;
; '[ip:6:addr:ess]:port' - to listen on a TCP socket to a specific IPv6 address on
; a specific port;
; 'port' - to listen on a TCP socket to all addresses
; (IPv6 and IPv4-mapped) on a specific port;
; '/path/to/unix/socket' - to listen on a unix socket.
; Note: This value is mandatory.
listen = /var/run/php7.3-fpm.sock
; Set listen(2) backlog.
; Default Value: 511 (-1 on FreeBSD and OpenBSD)
;listen.backlog = 511
; Set permissions for unix socket, if one is used. In Linux, read/write
; permissions must be set in order to allow connections from a web server. Many
; BSD-derived systems allow connections regardless of permissions.
; Default Values: user and group are set as the running user
; mode is set to 0660
listen.owner = www-data
listen.group = www-data
;listen.mode = 0666
; When POSIX Access Control Lists are supported you can set them using
; these options, value is a comma separated list of user/group names.
; When set, listen.owner and listen.group are ignored
;listen.acl_users =
;listen.acl_groups =
For anyone wondering, I started over with a fresh VPS and installed everything perfectly and all that and it fixed it. I must have been messing with configuration and those types of things too much with the above setup.
