Hi gents, this might be a more general question, and to some might even seem trivial, but here it goes: Running a Perfect setup with nginx+ISPConfig just fine, I'm also hosting a domain where only a single app resides, and it has this optional directive: Code: location / { try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string; } I would like to look at the web stats for this web, which is normally found in /stats/. But the URL is taken by the directive, handed to the app and it returns a 500. Q: How do I either change the directive to "exclude" the path /stats, or get around this in a different way, maybe by adding an additional "location" directive for /stats, but what does it have to look like?
An exclude option doesn't exist. You should look into the order of / and /stats That's where your solution is. If I'm not mistaking /stats should be before / If your IPSC's vhost master file doesn't let you putting it in the right order use Nginx Directives on your website's Options tab in ISPC. Start with Code: location / { ##delete## } location /stats/ { ##delete## } and add the original /stats and your / config in the right order (just copy /stats config from your website's original vhost file) Code: location /stats/ { index index.html index.php; auth_basic "Members Only"; auth_basic_user_file /var/www/clients/client2/web36/web//stats/.htpasswd_stats; add_header Content-Security-Policy "default-src * 'self' 'unsafe-inline' 'unsafe-eval' data:;"; } location / { try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string; }
thx, remkoh. in the end, I had to do what is described here. I also described the problem incorrectly, but I found that only after digging into it more: a few months ago, upon installation I modified the vhost file to point to the "public" directory as the Document root. Now, I removed that, did what the linked post says, and voilà: stats work now. Hints: freescout Laravel nginx public subdirectory
