Question
Server block for MediaWiki on NGINX, Ubuntu
- Posted on December 17, 2013
Asked by layneheiny.heiny
I installed Ubuntu on a droplet as well as NGINX. WordPress and XenForo are working fine but I need the MediaWiki subdirectory to work. Is there a source for a working server block somewhere?

Try replacing <pre>location /alv</pre> with <pre>location /alv/index.php</pre>.
Thank you. I’ve been all over the site and should have stated this in my post (but I was on an iPad last night). <br> <br>Anyway, let me add more information. <br> <br>directory: domain.com/alv <br>LocalSettings: $wfArticlePath = “/alv/$1” <br>location /alv { <br> try_files $uri $usr/ /w/index.php?$query_string <br>} <br> <br>This gives domain.com/alv/Main_Page and I want domain.com/alv/index.php/Main_Page <br> <br>Thank you.
