I'm new to nginx and I got a rewrite problem here:
I want to permanently redirect http://domain1.com/abc.php to http://domain2.com,
but I want to keep http://domain1.com/abc.php?param=value, I've tried put
rewrite ^/abc\.php$ http://domain2.com last;
which works for http://domain1.com/abc.php, unfortunately it rewrites everything that starts with the '/abc.php', I'm really confused why this is happening, any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Nginx rewrites generally don't "see" the query string as part of the URI, which is why your existing rewrite isn't working - to Nginx it's always ^/abc\.php$ whether there's a query string or not.
Instead, I'd try this (adapted from the documentation):
if ($args !~ param=value) {
rewrite ^/abc\.php$ http://domain2.com permanent;
}
But be aware that if is evil.

I need help with my nginx configuration.
The goal is to have all requests to my site like site/page1 site/smth/page1 be redirected to just site/ and site/smth/ basically for all requests ending like page[number]
I tried some examples that I found like rewrite ^/page/(.*)$ /$1; still wasn't able to get the redirection. Maybe I misplaced it, not quite sure where I should put the sting. Tried location and server blocks.
The nginx documentation examples for redirecting were a bit too hard to understand for me, so a little explanation would be great.
If you need a 301 HTTP redirection, try this rewrite rule (before the first location block):
rewrite ^(.*/)page\d+$ $1 permanent;
You can try something like this (not tested)
location ~ ^/(.+)/page[0-9]+$ {
rewrite ^/(.+)/page[0-9]+$ /$1 last;
}
I have an old URL structure like this archives.php?l=e and I moved it to a new structure archives/e
I'm trying to 301 redirect all the old urls, but I have run into troubles. This is what I'm currently doing but it's not working.
location ^~ /list.php {
rewrite /archives/$1/ permanent;
}
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I figured it out and I have to say Nginx has some nice magic for this. Using arg_l solved it. Somehow it creates a variable for each param.
location ^~ /archives.php {
rewrite ^/archives.php$ /archives/$arg_l? permanent;
}
Hello I'm trying to write a Nginx rewrite rule that adds a subdirectory to my URL if it's missing. For example, I need http://example.com to be re-written (and redirected) to http://example.com/legacy-app. Can't seem to find the proper example to do this.
You can use a rewrite directive, but an exact match location block is most efficient:
location = / {
return 301 /legacy-app;
}
See this document for more.
We ended up using this:
rewrite ^/$ /legacy-app/ last;
I have tried this for hours and can't seem to get it. I copied other examples and still can't get rewrite to work.
I need my url on nginx to look like http://myurl.com/main/login, http://myurl.com/somethigelse/home, est. Any Help Appreciated. I'm new to nginx, seems a lot faster.
My nginx rewrite looks like this:
rewrite ^/([^/]+)/([^/]+)$ /index.php?db=$1&action=$2 last;
rewrite ^/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/$ /index.php?db=$1&action=$2 last;
It works for me. Do you tell nginx to reload the configuration (do a sudo service nginx reload)? Otherwise, nginx will still be using the old config.
Note, that you can use one line by making the final slash optional using a question mark:
rewrite ^/([^/]+)/([^/]+)/?$ /index.php?db=$1&action=$2 last;
# ^
I have a single image that I renamed and need to redirect from the old image url to the new one my server uses nginx, I'm not having much success with the following rewrite:
rewrite ^/assets/avatar/avatar.png /assets/avatar/newavatar.png permanent;
Does someone know what is wrong?
If you want to use rewrite you need to use a full path to the new location
rewrite ^/assets/avatar/avatar.png http://example.com/assets/avatar/newavatar.png permanent;
A better way though is using a return
location /assets/avatar/avatar.png {
return 301 $scheme://example.com/assets/avatar/newavatar.png;
}
If you want to just rewrite, you need to change permanent to last or break
