overriding nginx try_files setting

[OliverRahner]

And the next issue on my way to nginx'iness.

I want to run Seafile on one vhost. I added all the settings Seafile told me to in their manual (https://manual.seafile.com/deploy/deploy_with_nginx.html).

Didn't work at first (got 404'ed after the initial redirect), but once I commented out either the "try_files" in "location /" or in "location @php" it started working.
It seems that the =404 which is default in "location @php" is the issue.

Even after reading through the source code's "mergeVhostCustom" magic I couldn't find a way to override the default try_files statement without patching my Froxlor installation...

Any hints?

There is currently no possibility to edit this, sorry

There is an issue on github for this already...

Most of WordPress static caching plugins require try_files modification on Nginx, this is a very much needed feature.

Please how are current FROXLOR users able to Host websites like Wordpress and other websites since this issue is yet to be resolved.

Please I really need your response as most of my websites are either Pure PHP or WordPress and I use NGINX as web server and PHP-FPM on a CentOS 7 machine

Don't know what you mean. Just installed a test wordpress on a server running nginx....no problem...again, like in other threads: READ CAREFULLY:

This doesn't mean wordpress itself does not work...

Open Up a bugreport/Feature request on github then please.

My current quick-and-very-dirty workaround looks like this:

froxlor/scripts/jobs/cron_tasks.inc.http.30.nginx.php

if ($domain['phpenabled_customer'] == 1 && $domain['phpenabled_vhost'] == '1') {
    $webroot_text .= "\t" . 'index    index.php index.html index.htm;' . "\n";
    if (!preg_match("/^##NO_TRY_FILES$/m", $domain['specialsettings']))
    {
        $webroot_text .= "\t\t" . 'try_files $uri $uri/ @rewrites;' . "\n";
    } else {
        // NO_TRY_FILES statement found, don't put try_files into config
    }
} else {
    $webroot_text .= "\t" . 'index    index.html index.htm;' . "\n";
}

If I now put the statement "##NO_TRY_FILES" on a line by itself into the vhost special settings, no "try_files" will be generated in "location /".

I also require this Feature.

Most websites including WordPress require a config as simple as 

location / {
     try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args ;
}

 

But this conflicts with what's Provided by Froxlor and NGINX would give error unable to start due to multiple  Location/      directives.
Once I digged into Froxlor, commented it out and mine worked But that equally affected my Froxlor installation forcing me to revert it back.

Please it's a much needed feature.
Thanks for the Good Work
