Nginx serves .php files as downloads, instead of executing them
But this in Not working in my case .
I have not much idea about nginx , please help me .

Answer 1

nginx will show error 502 (bad gateway) when php-fpm is not running or it can't find the socket.
In your case, I think the problem is on this line:
fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.0.22-fpm.sock;
try changing it to
fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock;
save and reload or restart nginx.
