[SOLVED] how to config NGINX for multiple domains with wordpress on Debian?

karelkap · 06-20-2010, 01:48 PM

Ok, so I have VPS installed with Debian, NGINX, mysql, php and wordpress. By default the template gives 1 wordpress install in the /var/www/ directory.
However, now I want to add more domains with wordpress to that VPS.

I created a directory called /home/public_html/domain1.com and linked it to the /var/www/ directory.
then I created another directory called /home/public_html/domain2.com and uploaded wordpress there.

What I did next was edit my /etc/nginx/nginx.conf file with the following code:

Code:

user www-data www-data;
worker_processes  4;

events {
    worker_connections  1024;
}

http {
    include       mime.types;
    default_type  application/octet-stream;

    sendfile        on;
    tcp_nopush      on;
    tcp_nodelay     off;
    keepalive_timeout  5;

    gzip  on;
    gzip_comp_level 2;
    gzip_proxied any;
    gzip_types      text/plain text/css application/x-javascript text/xml application/xml application/xml+rss text/javascript;

server  {
            listen       80;
            server_name  localhost;

            location /  {
                    root   html;
                    index  index.php index.html index.htm;
                           }

            # redirect server error pages to the static page /50x.html
            error_page   500 502 503 504  /50x.html;
            location = /50x.html
                           {
                                root   html;
                           }
                }

server {
            listen   80;
            server_name  www.domain1.com;
            rewrite ^/(.*) http://domain1.com/$1 permanent;
       }

server { listen 80; server_name domain2.com; rewrite ^/(.*) http://www.domain2.com/$1 permanent; }
server {
            listen   80;
            server_name *.domain1.com domain1.com www.domain2.com *.domain2.com;

            location /  {
                        root   /home/public_html/$host/;
                        index  index.php index.html;
                        include /etc/nginx/wordpress_params.regular;
                        }

            # pass the PHP scripts to FastCGI server listening on 127.0.0.1:9000
            location ~ \.php$
                                {
            fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
            fastcgi_index index.php;
            include /etc/nginx/fastcgi.conf;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /home/public_html/$host/$fastcgi_script_name;
                        }
       }


}

there are rewrite rules there because I want domain1.com to always display as http://domain1.com and domain2.com always as http://www.domain2.com

and the /etc/nginx/wordpress_params.regular contains the following to enable pretty urls in wordpress.

Code:

# WordPress pretty URLs: (as per dominiek.com)
if (-f $request_filename) {
break;
}
if (-d $request_filename) {
break;
}
rewrite ^(.+)$ /index.php?q=$1 last;
# Enable nice permalinks for WordPress: (as per Yawn.it)
error_page  404  = //index.php?q=$uri;

The problem however is that when I go to domain2.com it doesnt work, it display this error message: No input file specified.
domain1.com works fine..

Any idea whats wrong?

Thanks.
PS. im quite a newb so might be missing something simple here:)

Seems like the problem was that i need to make a directory called www.domain2.com instead of domain2.com
