Error "No input file specified" (wrong fastcgi_param?)

[Rob Schultz]

You need to either put

root   html/myvhost1.com;

inside your php location block or define it in the server block and  
don't worry about putting it in your location /  block. Personally i  
would get ride of the location / block and define root and index   
server wide. so in cases if you have
location /somedir {
}

you won't have to redefine root and index there also.
