Laravel (PHP Framwork) on ISPConfig and document root problem

Hello Guys,

I have a Laravel application on Nginx web server and as you know the public directory is set to: web/public, the following manuel settings works flawlessly for me:

Code:

root /var/www/mysite.com/web/public;
        try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string;

Now with ISPConfig as i can't change the directory root, I've tried everything else as directives but couldn't get it to work properly.

I've tried this:

Code:

location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string;
rewrite ^(.*)$ /public/$1 break;
}

this is will work to rewrite to public but any further link after public will produce loop error, for example: /web/public/register

will produce loop with the following error:

Code:

rewrite or internal redirection cycle while processing "/public//public//public//public//public//public//public 

what am i be missing in the rewrite line above to stop this loop and btw, why i have double slashes (public//) !!!!

any idea will be highly appreciated,

Thanks in Advance

 

UPDATE [Solved]:
with the following Nginx Directive I was able to solve all problems and redirect all request to /public without changing the root directory.

Code:

location / {
  try_files /public/$uri /public/$uri/ /public/index.php?$query_string;
}
