server {
    server_name   app.mydomain.com;

    root /srv/www/domains/app.mydomain.com;

    location ~ ^[^.]+$ {
        fastcgi_intercept_errors on;
        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root/controller.php;
        fastcgi_param PATH_INFO $uri;
        fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
        include fastcgi_params;
    }

    ...
}
