Joomla

If you get funny URLs such as "http://www.mysite.com/index.php/foo", try turning on "Use mod_rewrite rules" in your Joomla settings.

server {
  listen      80;
  server_name mysite.com www.mysite.com;
 
  access_log  /var/log/nginx/mysite.com-access.log;
  error_log   /var/log/nginx/mysite.com-error.log;
 
  large_client_header_buffers 4 8k; # prevent some 400 errors
 
  root        /var/www/mysite.com/html;
  index       index.php;
 
  location / {
    expires 30d;
    error_page 404 = @joomla; 
    log_not_found off;     
  }
 
  location @joomla { 
    rewrite ^(.*)$ /index.php?q=$1 last;
  }
 
  location ~ \.php$ {
    fastcgi_pass   127.0.0.1:8888;
    fastcgi_index  index.php;
    include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
    fastcgi_param  SCRIPT_FILENAME  $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
  }
