nginx rewriting with drupal windows - php

Question

this is the first time i use nginx , and i have two problems with it,
the first one is that i want to redirect http://localhost/project automatically to http://localhot/project/en/ and en is subdirectory on project.
The second problem : in localhost/project/en/ i can see the index.php i mean the main page but every redirecting from the project give me 404 not found like localhost/project/en/people/ or
localhost/project/en/people/article1
NB : i use nginx in windows with drupal and . here is my configuration:
worker_processes 1;
events {
worker_connections 1024;
}
http {
server_tokens on;
sendfile on;
tcp_nopush on;
tcp_nodelay on;

Installation Instructions for Drupal 7
with "Clean URLs"
Installation Steps:
Download http://ftp.drupal.org/files/projects/drupal-7.34.zip
Extract into c:\wpn-xm\www
rename versionized folder to just "drupal" = full path to drupal = c:\wpn-xm\www\drupal
run drupal install - http://localhost/drupal/install.php
activate missing PHP extensions: maybe gd2, mbstring, then restart php
reload install page, all green, proceed to database dialog
before filling the database dialog, create database "drupal" in adminer, then use that as db in dialog
proceed with install steps until done
Browse: http://localhost/drupal/
Ok, you just installed Drupal on localhost.
URL Rewriting and Clean URLs Steps:
After the installation, 3 things are needed to get short URLs working:
provide new host "http://drupal.dev"
add a Nginx Configuration for URL rewriting
enabling "Clean URLs" in the Drupal Configuration
Important Notice
The short/nice/clean URLs work only for URLs starting with
"http://drupal.dev/" not for "localhost". Using megaphone: not working
with "http://localhost/..." - use "http://drupal.dev/...".
Add "drupal.dev" to hosts file
You need to add "drupal.dev" to your "hosts" file.
manually or
via the WPN-XM Server Control Panel - Steps:
right-click tray icon - "Manage Hosts"
"Add" - Data "127.0.01" "drupal.dev"
Click Ok.
The Windows Permissions Dialog pops up.
Click Ok, to allow writing to the "hosts" file.
If Anti-Virus tool blocks writing to the hosts file, disable AV it, repeat the steps, enable it again.
Check: http://drupal.dev/?q=admin - ok
-
**Add a Nginx server block for Drupal7 **
Use the following Nginx config file to activate rewriting URLs:
https://github.com/WPN-XM/software/blob/master/nginx/config/conf/domains-disabled/drupal7.conf
You might use an include directive in your main nginx.conf to load it.
Restart or rehash Nginx to activate the new configuration.
You can now start using the URL "http://drupal.dev" in your browser.
Important is the the following directive in your server block
# Make site accessible from http://drupal.dev/
server_name drupal.dev;
and the rewrite rule rewrite ^/(.*)$ /index.php?q=$1;.
Check: http://drupal.dev/admin
Activate "Clean URLs" in Drupal Configuration
Testing "Clean URLs"
http://drupal.dev/admin/config/search/clean-urls/check
Response: {"status":true}
Enabling "Clean URLs" (b)
http://drupal.dev/admin/config/search/clean-urls
Check Checkbox & Save.
Links in the menu should appear in "Clean URL" form without "?q=".
Final Checks:
Hover links in the menu and check for short URLs. - ok
http://drupal.dev/admin - ok
http://drupal.dev/user/login - ok
Done.
