Need help with Apache to Nginx Rewrite Rules

sonontsesonontse Member
in Help

I have an apache .htaccess that I need to convert to Nginx in order to run on my LEB.

RewriteEngine on RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule .* index.php?/$0 [PT,L]

I followed some converters online and it gave me this

# nginx configuration location / { if (!-e $request_filename){ rewrite ^(.*)$ /index.php?/$0 break; } }

However, nginx won't start and is complaining about

nginx: [emerg] unknown "0" variable

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    How about just this?

      location / {
    try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args;
  }

    That was the default in my Tuxlite nginx config and it didn't work.

    I haven't tested this, but rewrite doc examples use $1 (and not $0) for substitution. Hence that error.

    Why are you OPs always being "soooooooo" helpful with providing us more information? I'd really like to know for which software you need the rewrite rules for. That might help more than you think.

    Looks like WP.

    It is a social app built on top of codeigniter that utilizes rewrite for seo friendly images and links. I decided to just fork over some more money to get a LEB with higher ram so I can host it on apache instead to avoid this and potential problems down the road. Thank you everyone for all their help.

    NGINX might provide more scalability for this type of application. On their Wiki, they've published correct configuration files for CodeIgniter.

        location / {
            # Check if a file or directory index file exists, else route it to index.php.
            try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php;
    }

    I know you've switched, but for future reference NGINX is easier to configure than Apache.
