nginx rewrite for wikkawiki
- by Hans
Just setup WikkaWiki on my server, I have been trying to have the links go from wiki.mysite.info/wikka.php?wakka=Start into wiki.mysite.info/DotMG.
I tried following their guide at http://docs.wikkawiki.org/ModRewrite, however it seems incomplete and outdated. Furthermore, as of version 1.3.2 base_url isn't even manually configurable from the wikka.config.php file.
I am using version 1.3.2 of WikkaWiki. My nginx virtual hosts file contains:
server {
listen 80;
server_name wiki.mysite.info;
root /usr/share/nginx/wikka/;
access_log /usr/share/nginx/.access/wikka;
error_log /usr/share/nginx/.error/wikka error;
location / {
index index.php;
try_files $uri $uri/ @wikka;
}
location @wikka {
rewrite ^(.*/[^\./]*[^/])$ $1/ last;
rewrite ^(.*)$ /wikka.php?wakka=$1 last;
}
location ~* \.php$ {
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
fastcgi_index index.php;
include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
}
}
Thus far it works, I can go to wiki.mysite.info/APage and it'll display that page, however it doesn't work on all pages, sometime the browser simply downloads the page (For some reason it always downloads the Start page).
Also when I go to wiki.mysite.info/ it downloads the wikka.php file...
Furthermore, the links on the wiki have the wikka.php?wakka= so whenever I navigate around the wiki, it goes back to being wiki.mysite.info/wikka.php?wakka=APage.
I think something is wrong with my rewrite but I can't say for sure.
