Hello i just what to know how setup a multisite using Nginx, eg. www.example.com/site1, www.example.com/site2, etc. I know how to configure in one main root site which is www.example.com
So far www.example.com works but I cannot add additional sub sites
Here's my nginx conf file for reference;
server {
server_name _;
root /var/www/example; ## <-- Your only path reference.
location = /favicon.ico {
log_not_found off;
access_log off;
}
location = /robots.txt {
allow all;
log_not_found off;
access_log off;
}
# This matters if you use drush
location = /backup {
deny all;
}
# Very rarely should these ever be accessed outside of your lan
location ~* .(txt|log)$ {
allow 192.168.0.0/16;
deny all;
}
location ~ ..*/.*.php$ {
return 403;
}
location / {
# This is cool because no php is touched for static content
try_files $uri @rewrite;
}
location @rewrite {
# Some modules enforce no slash (/) at the end of the URL
# Else this rewrite block wouldn't be needed (GlobalRedirect)
rewrite ^/(.*)$ /index.php?q=$1;
}
location ~ .php$ {
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+.php)(/.+)$;
#NOTE: You should have "cgi.fix_pathinfo = 0;" in php.ini
include fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
fastcgi_intercept_errors on;
fastcgi_pass unix:/tmp/php.socket;
}
# Fighting with ImageCache? This little gem is amazing.
location ~ ^/sites/.*/files/imagecache/ {
try_files $uri @rewrite;
}
location ~* .(js|css|png|jpg|jpeg|gif|ico)$ {
expires max;
log_not_found off;
}
}Thanks
Comments
I think you need to create a
I think you need to create a separate 'server' instance for each of the subsites too
server { server_name site1; root /var/www/example/site1; ..... ..... }server { server_name site2; root /var/www/example/site2; ..... ..... }Something like that.
Thank you all so very much.
Thank you all so very much. It's working now.
I just need subfolder sites
I just need subfolder sites /var/www/site1, /var/www/site2, etc. For those who would like to implement this interface here's my config file;
location /site1/ {root /var/www/site1;
index index.php;
try_files $uri @price;
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+.php)(/.+)$;
#NOTE: You should have "cgi.fix_pathinfo = 0;" in php.ini
include fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
fastcgi_intercept_errors on;
fastcgi_pass unix:/tmp/php.socket;
}
location @site1 {
rewrite ^/site1/(.)$ /site1/index.php?q=$1;
}
location ~ ^/site1/sites/./files/imagecache/ {
try_files $uri @site1;
}
for those who want to implement multi-site in one nginx box, using subdir sites
Multisite - Sharing the same code base
I can't make Multisite - Sharing the same code base with Nginx, like http://drupal.org/documentation/install/multi-site.
The sub domain names are always set to /var/www/drupal7/sites/default;
Multisite on Windows or Linux
If you use on Windows, I could share my knowledge here. I use Perosia's nginx.conf as default nginx setting. But you need to modify the line code for Windows.For drupal.conf, I used the above code because Perosia's drupal.conf is not suitable for Windows or a lot of line code to debug by yourself. Then create the separate virtual host files for every subsites. Edit Windows hosts file to include every subsites ip address. Your root document like this c:/nginx/home/example/drupal_7/, and copy all Drupal 7 files inside this folder, where this is your main Drupal 7 code base. Edit sites.php to create multisite. Create the subsite folder according to Drupal 7 multisite concept.
subsite1.conf:
server {
listen 127.0.0.1:80;
server_name subsite1;## must tally with the windows hosts domain name
