I’m setting up new Laravel 5.4 project on a Ubuntu 16.04.3 x64 nginx machine. The index page works fine but when i try using any other route it takes me to a 404 page. In my development environment, the routes are working fine. I’m guessing it has to do with my server setup.
Below is my information for the server:
server {
listen 80;
listen [::]:80;
root /var/www/dev.drmanansala.com/public;
index index.php index;
server_name dev.drmanansala.com;
error_page 404 /404page.php;
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /$uri.php?$is_args$args;
}
location ~ \.php$ {
include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock;
}
location ~ /\.ht {
deny all;
}
listen 443 ssl; # managed by Certbot
ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/dev.drmanansala.com/fullchain.pem; # managed by Certbot
ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/dev.drmanansala.com/privkey.pem; # managed by Certbot
include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-nginx.conf; # managed by Certbot
ssl_dhparam /etc/letsencrypt/ssl-dhparams.pem; # managed by Certbot
if ($scheme != "https") {
return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
} # managed by Certbot
}

Hello,
According to the official Laravel documentation the correct default configuration should be:
server {
listen 80;
server_name example.com;
root /example.com/public;
add_header X-Frame-Options "SAMEORIGIN";
add_header X-XSS-Protection "1; mode=block";
add_header X-Content-Type-Options "nosniff";
index index.html index.htm index.php;
charset utf-8;
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string;
}
location = /favicon.ico { access_log off; log_not_found off; }
location = /robots.txt { access_log off; log_not_found off; }
error_page 404 /index.php;
location ~ \.php$ {
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php/php7.2-fpm.sock;
fastcgi_index index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $realpath_root$fastcgi_script_name;
include fastcgi_params;
}
location ~ /\.(?!well-known).* {
deny all;
}
}
As far as I can see you would need to adjust your PHP-FPM part a little bit to include the extra fastcgi rules.
Hope that this helps! Regards, Bobby
