I have nginx 1.6.2 serving a wordpress site, with php-fpm.
Permalinks are setup the following way: /blog/%postname%/
nginx serves correctly the site pages (/
, /products
, /contact
...) as well as the blog articles (under/blog/
). 404s work well for blog articles (i.e. example.com/blog/idontExist
will respond with 404). However, browsing to example.com/iDontExist
gets HTTP 200 reponse and the content of the site's index page, instead of the 404.
Here is my nginx.conf:
server {
server_name example.com;
root /var/local/example.com/;
access_log /var/log/nginx/example.com-access.log main;
error_log /var/log/nginx/example.com-error.log;
error_page 404 /index.php?$request_uri;
location ~ \.php$ {
try_files $uri =404;
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
# fastcgi_split_path_info ^(/blog)(/.*)$;
include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
#fastcgi_intercept_errors on;
#fastcgi_param PATH_TRANSLATED $document_root$fastcgi_path_info;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;
fastcgi_index /index.php;
}
location / {
auth_basic "private section";
auth_basic_user_file /var/local/example.com/conf/.htpasswd;
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args;
}
location ~ /\.ht {
deny all;
}
}
and here are my fastcgi_params:
fastcgi_param QUERY_STRING $query_string;
fastcgi_param REQUEST_METHOD $request_method;
fastcgi_param CONTENT_TYPE $content_type;
fastcgi_param CONTENT_LENGTH $content_length;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_NAME $fastcgi_script_name;
fastcgi_param REQUEST_URI $request_uri;
fastcgi_param DOCUMENT_URI $document_uri;
fastcgi_param DOCUMENT_ROOT $document_root;
fastcgi_param SERVER_PROTOCOL $server_protocol;
fastcgi_param HTTPS $https if_not_empty;
fastcgi_param GATEWAY_INTERFACE CGI/1.1;
fastcgi_param SERVER_SOFTWARE nginx/$nginx_version;
fastcgi_param REMOTE_ADDR $remote_addr;
fastcgi_param REMOTE_PORT $remote_port;
fastcgi_param SERVER_ADDR $server_addr;
fastcgi_param SERVER_PORT $server_port;
fastcgi_param SERVER_NAME $server_name;
# bug workaround : http://trac.nginx.org/nginx/ticket/321
set $path_info $fastcgi_path_info;
fastcgi_param PATH_INFO $path_info;
# PHP only, required if PHP was built with --enable-force-cgi-redirect
fastcgi_param REDIRECT_STATUS 200;
I've read and tried many variations based on what's on forums, but nothing worked.
