Nginx problem

Hi everyone,

I managed to install and configure VF (2.1a9) successfully as a root of my domain (non-embedded). Yet certain urls do not work as they should under Nginx (1.0.11).

Here is the example: /dashboard/settings /messages/all

work as they should, however /entry/signout?TransientKey=xxx and lots of other urls with extra parameters after "?" does not work at all. The "signout" does not do its job , however it shows login page as if it already signed out the user. The same goes for entry/register?Target=%2F and other urls I do not remember now.

In a nutshell: no url is working that contains extra ?parameters.

What is the issue and how to fix that? Thanks!

There's something you've got wrong in your nginx conf. There are quite a few discussions around regarding Vanilla and nginx. Try giving a few of them a read and see if anything rings a bell.

Hi Todd, thank you for the suggestion, but I tried a lot of tricks and read ALL information I could get regarding the issue from goolge. To name a few:

1. http://vanillaforums.org/discussion/9915/vanilla-on-nginx
2. https://gist.github.com/1096187

None of those was helpful.

I'm not going to be able to help you more than this. Nginx is not my bag and usually people that use it have to know how to tinker with it.

Here's a snippet from our server config:

   ## Default location
   location / {
      try_files $uri @site;
   }

   location @site {
      rewrite ^ /index.php?p=$uri&$args last;
   }

hbf

I've had great results with apache... just sayin'.
