only removing index.php rule works on my NginX and CodeIgniter as rewrite. Why?
- by Atomei Cosmin
I am very new in rewriting in nginx but although I've spent 2 days reading on forums, I still can't get some Codeigniter rewrites working ...
server {
listen *:80;
server_name artademy.com www.artademy.com;
root /var/www/artademy.com/web;
index index.html index.htm index.php index.cgi index.pl index.xhtml;
if (!-e $request_filename)
{
rewrite ^/(.*)$ /index.php?/$1;
}
if (!-e $request_filename)
{
rewrite ^/(index.php\?)/(.*)$ /$1/mobile_app last;
break;
}
error_log /var/log/ispconfig/httpd/artademy.com/error.log;
access_log /var/log/ispconfig/httpd/artademy.com/access.log combined;
## Disable .htaccess and other hidden files
location ~ /\. {
deny all;
access_log off;
log_not_found off;
}
location = /favicon.ico {
log_not_found off;
access_log off;
}
location = /robots.txt {
allow all;
log_not_found off;
access_log off;
}
location /stats {
index index.html index.php;
auth_basic "Members Only";
auth_basic_user_file /var/www/clients/client0/web3/.htpasswd_stats;
}
location ^~ /awstats-icon {
alias /usr/share/awstats/icon;
}
location ~ \.php$ {
try_files $uri =404;
include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9012;
fastcgi_index index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
fastcgi_param PATH_INFO $fastcgi_script_name;
fastcgi_intercept_errors on;
}
}
Codeigniter settings are: well for uri_protocol: REQUEST_URI;
What i noticed is that from this rule: rewrite ^/(.)$ /index.php?/$1; it works ever if i write it like this: rewrite ^/(.)$ /index.php?; It might be a wild guess but it stops at the question mark... Anyhow what I need are rules as these from .htaccess:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^lang=([a-z]{2})$
RewriteRule ^([a-z]{2})$ index.php?/home_page?lang=$1 [L,QSA]
RewriteRule ^([a-z]{2})$ index.php?/home_page?lang=$1 [L,QSA]
#how_it_works
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^how-it-works/(en)$ index.php?/how_it_works?lang=en [L,QSA]
#order_status
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^order-status/(en)$ index.php?/order_status?lang=en [L,QSA]
Can anyone tell me what i'm doing wrong and show me a proper way for at least one rule? It would be more than helpful.
Thank you in advance! ^^
PS: I made it work on apache by using Path_info for uri_protocol.. if this info is of any help, and i remember having kind of the same problem there too but switching to path_info made it all good.
