I previously had my blog urls at http://www.domain.com/category_name/post_name/ it has now moved to http://blog.domain.com/category_name/post_name/
The main website used to be at http://www.domain.com/main/ and it is now simply at the root http://domain.com.
I have separate sites-available conf files for the main site and the blog.
I have searched high and low and cannot find anything that seems to work to redirect the incoming urls?
I’m using Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, nginx version installed is 1.1.19
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Awesome, glad you got it working! :]
Thanks again, I used your example and got it working with this: <br> <br> # Rewrites <br> rewrite ^/main(.)$ http://domain.com$1 permanent; <br> rewrite ^/blog/ http://blog.domain.com permanent; <br> rewrite ^/(.)/$ http://blog.domain.com/$1/ permanent; <br> <br>I wasn’t using a if block so I’m pretty sure that’s why I had to remove the break statements.
Try these rules: <br> <br>(in www.domain.com’s server block) <br> <br>rewrite ^/$ http://domain.com permanent break; <br>rewrite ^/main(.)$ http://domain.com$1 permanent break; <br>rewrite ^(.)$ http://blog.domain.com$1 permanent; <br> <br>Make sure you reload nginx. <br> <br>With this config: <br> <br>- http://www.domain.com/ redirects to http://domain.com <br>- http://www.domain.com/main/something redirects to http://domain.com/something <br>- Everything else redirects to http://blog.domain.com/ <br> <br>Let me know how it works for you! :]
