I have a PHP web application that does work in my local Apache development environment. However, the same app does not work in my production environment with nginx (1.4.6/Ubuntu) and PHP-FPM. When I use PHP header in my development environment, the client gets a 302 and is redirected to the appropriate page. However, the same function call serves the client with a 200 response in nginx PHP-FPM.
public static function redirect($path = '') { //I call this function with $path='dashboard'
$location = 'Location: ' . Settings::getConfig()['url'] . $path;
//var_dump($location); die; // If I leave this line for debugging, this line outputs that $location is a string, and has value 'Location: http://[myDomain]/dashboard'
header($location); //after this line, nginx sends a 200 back to the client, while Apache (correctly) sends a 302.
}
The end result is that clients are not able to login in my production environment. What could be the possible cause of this problem?

header. Otherwise, subsequent PHP code will still execute, so if there's something else in your code that sends a 200 response, that'll do it.
