Recently I use nginx, but i have a problem with rewriting.
When i go to the orginal url there is no problem, when i use the rewrited url and its no *.php There is no problem. But when i use the rewrited url with a php file i get the error: no input file specified.
I think the rewrited url go to php and php can't find it because its rewrited and not a real file.
This is my rewrite rule:
location /folder {
if (!-e $request_filename){
rewrite ^/folder\/.*?\/(.*) /folder/$1 break;
}
}
You can probably simplify this by just using a different location path, then you can completely avoid the if statement.
This is untested and might need some tweaking, but the general idea should be clear
location ~ /folder\/.*?\/(.*).php$ {
rewrite ^ /folder/$1 permanent;
}

I'm performing a migration from an Apache server to Nginx and missed a .htaccess file that performs a rewrite:
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ routes.php?params=$1 [NC,QSA]
For example, this endpoint example.com/api/v1/param1/param2/param3 would be rewritten as https://example.com/api/v1/routes.php?params=/param1/param2/param3
Can someone confirm that this is the correct equivalent for Nginx before I re-attempt the migration?
rewrite "(?i)^(.*)$" routes.php?params=$1
and is this how it would be used in the config file since /api/v1 is the only path that requires the rewrite?
location /api/v1 {
rewrite "(?i)^(.*)$" routes.php?params=$1
}
UPDATE
Adding this to the conf file in Laravel Forge appears to just break the application and prevents displaying any views. Instead, it says This site can’t be reached example.com refused to connect.
All nginx URIs begin with a leading /, and your regular expressions do not attempt to remove the /api/v1/ prefix before appending the parameter list.
Try:
location /api/v1 {
rewrite ^/api/v1(/.*)$ /api/v1/routes.php?params=$1 last;
}
I have to support one old project which uses Yii1. I get very strange behavior. Pretty URL is configured.
When URL doen't have a trailing slash (e.g. /about or /blog/post/5) everything goes OK (the route is correct and the correct page is displayed). But the same URLs with trailing slash (/about/ or /blog/post/5/) make a wrong route. Disregarding of url I always get the route 'main/index' and index page is displayed (not redirected to, but displayed at all URLs with trailing slash).
Any ideas?
I had the same issue and the problem was in nginx config. Yii's pretty URLs require proper config to work. This was strange but the same config worked fine on one server and produced the described behavior on another server.
The problematic config:
location ~ ^(.+\.(js|css|jpeg|jpg|gif|png|ico|swf|mp3|html|eot|woff|ttf|otf|svg|zip|pdf|xml))$
{
rewrite ^(.*)/$ $1 permanent;
try_files $uri /index.php?$args;
}
The working config:
location /
{
index index.php;
if (!-e $request_filename)
{
rewrite ^/(.*) /index.php?r=$1 last;
}
}
I have Wordpress .htaccess where I have written a redirect rule. It is working perfectly. But now I am hosting the site in nginx. Where I came to know, there is no .htaccess. So I got a file named default in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/. In this file I have to write.
But after written the redirect rule, nothing is happened.
I have written in .htaccess like this
RewriteRule ^business/([^/]*)/([^/]*)$ /business-profile/?id=$1 [L,P]
And now written in default file like this:
# nginx configuration
location /business {
rewrite ^/business/([^/]*)/([^/]*)$ /business-profile/?id=$1 break;
}
But cant get any result. Is there anything I left ? Please help.
# nginx configuration
location /business {
rewrite ^/business/([^/]*)/([^/]*)$ /aimber/business-profile/?id=$1 break;
}
I think you forgot "/aimber", the above should work.
I am running a joomla 2.5 site on ubuntu server with php/nginx/mysql (fairly new to nginx)
My problem is that when a user hits a url, I need it to ignore the .html file extension.
For example, if you hit mysite.com/page then it renders the page fine.
If you hit mysite.com/page.html then it will throw a 404 error. Which is because there isn't actually a 'page.html' page on my site. Its a K2 article alias. Yes, I could not put .html in but its not me adding content to the site, its the client. I have recently moved server and before it worked fine, now it doesnt so I know I have missed something in the config.
I know I can get nginx to do the opposite of what I want, with try files. Not sure how to get it to do the reverse.
This is my nginx config:
location / {
# First attempt to serve request as file, then
# as directory, then fall back to index.html
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php;
# Uncomment to enable naxsi on this location
# include /etc/nginx/naxsi.rules
}
Now I know if i had a page.html page and I wanted to hide the .html I could add $uri.html
What I want to know is how to get nginx to try page.html if it cant find it try page
So turned out to be a Joomla Config variable. Under SEO settings in global config set 'apply suffix' to yes. I feel quite stupid. Thanks to all those that tried to help, as always much appreciated.
Here's a potential solution I managed to come across:
location / {
# If /{foo} is not an existing file or directory, rewrite to /{foo}.html
if (!-e $request_filename) {
rewrite ^(.+)$ /$1.html break;
}
# Redirect all {foo}.html URLS to /{foo}
rewrite ^/(.*)\.html$ /$1 redirect;
}
If you can correctly write .htaccess rewrite lines, try using a htaccess-to-nginx converter
As commented, this will check for the existence of a directory, file, etc. using the current URL. If nothing exists, it will attempt to request the url with .html appended.
Additionally, if .html is already present in the URL, it will redirect to the URL without .html
Quick workaround:
rewrite ^(. *)\.html$ $1 break;
Should be the first rewrite in the stack, even before try_files.
I am trying to accomplish two things in regards to nginx rewrites. First is to rewrite something like this:
oldvhost.domain.com/?dir=Dir1/Dir2/Dir3 -->
newvhost.domain.com/?dir=./Dir1/Dir2/Dir3
Notice the "./" in front of the second vhost?
Secondly I am trying to rewrite something like this:
oldvhost.domain.com/orginal.php?file=Dir1/Dir2/Dir3/file.zip ->
newvhost.domain.com/newphpfile.php?file=./Dir1/Dir2/Dir3/file.zip
I have managed to get this to work "somewhat" by doing this on the new vhost before any location commands:
rewrite ^/original.php$ /newphpfile.php$1 last;
But this isn't working 100% and is only remedied by the $realpath PHP function. I still need this working via regex rewrite but there's something about the "?"s that are making it fail.
As for the redirection you can do this in a location
location /something
return 301 http://example.com/?dir=./$arg_dir;
}
Or if you want it as a rewrite
rewrite /old-example.com/location-from.php http://example.com/new-location.php?./$arg_dir permanent;
and for the rewrite it should be similar as the second redirection, but no need for full host name
rewrite /old-location.php /new-location.php?./$arg_dir;
And here's the documentation of the $arg_name
The best way to do this in Nginx would be a rewrite, using reg expressions.. Try the code below in your virtual host.
location / {
#Rewrite for directory
rewrite ^/?dir=(.*) http://yoururl.com/?dir=./$1;
#rewrite for file
rewrite ^/origional.php?file=(.*) http://yoururl.com/newphpfile.php?file=./$1;
}
The first rewrite takes care of your directory. Please note it is being assumed that all incoming links do not have the necessary ./ you need. If they come with the ./ it may cause breakage. Or it may cause nothing, depending on what the PHP is doing.
