flarum on suburl on nginx

mrahimian

Hi everyone.
I want to deploy flarum on a suburl of my website.
For example at www.example.com/forum.
I searched a lot but still i couldn't do that.

root /var/www/backend;
index index.php ;

location ~ ^/(api/|image/logo.png|cp|loginadmin|web/|assets|avatar.png) {
        try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string;

}

location ^~ /forum {
    root /var/www/flarum2/public;
    try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string;

    location ~ \.php$ {
        include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
        fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.4-fpm.sock;
        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
        }

    include /var/www/flarum2/.nginx.conf;
}

location ~ \.php$ {
        include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
        fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.4-fpm.sock;
        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
}

This is a part of my nginx config file.
Can anyone help ?

The first block is not for flarum. It is for my backend and it works correctly.

mrahimian any errors in your nginx error logs?

You know, It seems that it goes to first location block.
Because it doesn't return 404 , 500 or ... errors.
It goes to a page that refers to first location block.

I think it doesn't pay attention to my root in /forum location block.
Because when i change the main root to /var/www/flarum2/public , it shows something.
It loads flarum discussions but not assets.

root /var/www/backend;
index index.php ;

location /forum {
    root /var/www/flarum2/public;
    include /var/www/flarum2/.nginx.conf;
}

try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string;

location ~ \.php$ {
        include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
        fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.4-fpm.sock;
        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
}

Can you try this?

luceos
Thanks. But it doesn't work.
It returns 404 not found.

2022/04/12 09:37:25 [error] 55527#55527: *34 "/var/www/flarum2/public/forum/index.php" is not found (2: No such file or directory),

This is the nginx log. I don't know why it adds /forum to the path

As i say in my last post , I don't know why nginx add the /forum route to the root path.
I tried using alias instead of root but nothing was changed.
So i made forum directory in /var/www/flarum2/public and made a symlink to public 🙂
Now the first page load properly but other routes like /api , /login , /register , ... doesn't work.
And something else, is that i comment location / in /var/www/flarum2/.nginx.conf

Can you share your current nginx configuration? Makes it easier to assist.
