Hello. i am facing problem configuring ngnix.config block to support wordpress.
my wordpress shows 404 error when i put is to postname. others except plain text doesnt seems to be working.
after going through some doc , i figured that ngnix.config need modification to support .htaccess like behavior.
please can anyone check whats the problem?
server block is configured as below server { listen 139.59.10.214:80; server_name chetantest.tk www.chetantest.tk; root /home/admin/web/chetantest.tk/public_html; index index.php index.html index.htm; access_log /var/log/nginx/domains/chetantest.tk.log combined; access_log /var/log/nginx/domains/chetantest.tk.bytes bytes; error_log /var/log/nginx/domains/chetantest.tk.error.log error;
location / {
location ~* ^.+\.(jpeg|jpg|png|gif|bmp|ico|svg|css|js)$ {
expires max;
}
location ~ [^/]\.php(/|$) {
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
if (!-f $document_root$fastcgi_script_name) {
return 404;
}
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9003;
fastcgi_index index.php;
include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
}
index index.php index.html index.htm;
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args;
if ($scheme = http) {
return 301 https://$server_name$request_uri;
}
}
error_page 403 /error/404.html;

location /error/ {

}
location ~* "/\.(htaccess|htpasswd)$" {
deny all;
return 404;
}

Ideally, you don’t want to nest location blocks, and from looking over your configuration, that’s where the issue is stemming from. Each location block should ideally only handle one thing. So if we take your current server block and rewrite it without nesting and break it apart, it looks like:
server {
listen 139.59.10.214:80;
servername chetantest.tk www.chetantest.tk;
root /home/admin/web/chetantest.tk/publichtml;
index index.php index.html index.htm;
accesslog /var/log/nginx/domains/chetantest.tk.log combined;
accesslog /var/log/nginx/domains/chetantest.tk.bytes bytes;
error_log /var/log/nginx/domains/chetantest.tk.error.log error;
error_page 403 /error/404.html;
error_page 404 /error/404.html;
error_page 500 502 503 504 /error/50x.html;
location ~* ^.+\.(jpeg|jpg|png|gif|bmp|ico|svg|css|js)$ {
expires max;
}
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args;
}
location ~ [^/]\.php(/|$) {
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
if (!-f $document_root$fastcgi_script_name) {
return 404;
}
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9003;
fastcgi_index index.php;
include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
}
location /error/ {
alias /home/admin/web/chetantest.tk/document_errors/;
}
location ~* "/\.(htaccess|htpasswd)$" {
deny all;
return 404;
}
location /vstats/ {
alias /home/admin/web/chetantest.tk/stats/;
include /home/admin/web/chetantest.tk/stats/auth.conf*;
}
