What one request do you make that gives a 404?

(It should be in the nginx logs.)

What file on the filesystem do you want nginx to return, instead of
that 404?

Does that fastcgi_params file include SCRIPT_FILENAME? If not, you may
need to include some appropriate variant of "fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME
$request_filename;" within that location{}.

Good luck with it,
