Nginx + Codeigniter rewrite - php

Question

after i move my app to Nginx server things just blow up.
My site is loaded, but when i try to access some controller return 404 not found.
Read alot of articles how to configure nginx.conf but without success.
Here is my nginx.conf
server {
listen 80;
server_name example.com;
root /var/www/html/travel;
index index.php;
# Enable rewrite error log
error_log /var/log/nginx/travel.error_log debug;
rewrite_log on;
# Any HTTP request other than those for assets folder, files folder and robots.txt
# is treated as a request for your index.php file.
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?/$request_uri;
}
location ~* ^/(assets|files|robots\.txt) { }
# Deny access to .htaccess files, if Apache's document root
# concurs with Nginx's one
location ~ /\.ht {
deny all;
}
}
Strange thing is that in error.log has no errors.
Here is mine Codeigniter config.php
$config['base_url'] = 'http://example.com';
$config['index_page'] = '';
$config['uri_protocol'] = 'REQUEST_URI';

Check if this helps. Replace both occurrences of <source_directory>; with your correct value:
server {
listen 80 default_server;
listen [::]:80 default_server;
server_name _;
root <source_directory>;
rewrite_log on;
index index.html index.php;
# Load configuration files for the default server block.
include /etc/nginx/default.d/*.conf;
if ($host ~* ^www\.(.*))
{
set $host_without_www $1;
rewrite ^/(.*)$ $scheme://$host_without_www/$1 permanent;
}
# canonicalize codeigniter url end points
# if your default controller is something other than "welcome" you should change the following
if ($request_uri ~* ^(/welcome(/index)?|/index(.php)?)/?$)
{
rewrite ^(.*)$ / permanent;
}
# removes trailing "index" from all controllers
if ($request_uri ~* index/?$)
{
rewrite ^/(.*)/index/?$ /$1 permanent;
}
# removes trailing slashes (prevents SEO duplicate content issues)
if (!-d $request_filename)
{
rewrite ^/(.+)/$ /$1 permanent;
}
# removes access to "system" folder, also allows a "System.php" controller
if ($request_uri ~* ^/system)
{
rewrite ^/(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 last;
break;
}
# unless the request is for a valid file (image, js, css, etc.), send to bootstrap
if (!-e $request_filename)
{
rewrite ^/(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 last;
break;
}
# use fastcgi for all php files
location ~ \.php$
{
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
fastcgi_index index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME <source_directory>$fastcgi_script_name;
include fastcgi_params;
}
# deny access to apache .htaccess files
location ~ /\.htaccess
{
deny all;
}
error_page 404 /404.html;
location = /40x.html
{
}
error_page 500 502 503 504 /50x.html;
location = /50x.html
{
}
}

Answer 2

server {
server_name domain.tld;
root /var/www/html/travel;
index index.php;
# set expiration of assets to MAX for caching
location ~* \.(ico|css|js|gif|jpe?g|png)(\?[0-9]+)?$ {
expires max;
log_not_found off;
}
location / {
# Check if a file or directory index file exists, else route it to index.php.
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php;
}
location ~* \.php$ {
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
include fastcgi.conf;
}
}
This is my config with some changes.
