Objective
Remove the index.php prefix from your nginx code igniter instance.
Assumptions
- In your main nginx conf file you define how php is called (unix socket or ip:port)
- You will replace foo.example.com with whatever your domain name is
- The proper logging path will be defined per your system as opposed to the location i have used
Configurations
Example upstream in main nginx conf
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 |
# Upstream to abstract backend connection(s) for PHP. upstream php { #using unix socket server unix:/tmp/php-fpm.sock; # # #server 127.0.0.1:9000; } |

CodeIgniter Specific Info
After this, make sure that your codeIgniter config.php contains the following information:
|
1 2 3 |
$config['base_url'] = "http://foo.example.com/"; $config['index_page'] = ""; $config['uri_protocol'] = "REQUEST_URI"; |
