Server block for MediaWiki on NGINX, Ubuntu

Posted December 17, 2013

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). Anyway, let me add more information. directory: domain.com/alv LocalSettings: $wfArticlePath = “/alv/$1” location /alv { try_files $uri $usr/ /w/index.php?$query_string } This gives domain.com/alv/Main_Page and I want domain.com/alv/index.php/Main_Page Thank you.
