Laravel routes not found after nginx install

Question

After I changed ICG to nginx all routes except index page does not work.

Laravel Config:

#/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/laravel
server {
    listen 80;

          


        

Answer 1

I found that this solved my problem with Laravel routing. I nested the location ~ .php$ inside location /.

Example:

server{
    listen 9000;

    server_name _;

    root /var/www/myapp/public;

    index index.php index.html;

    location / {
        try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php$is_args$args;

        location ~ \.php$ {

            include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
            fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php/php7.4-fpm.sock;

        }
    }
}

I was also getting the same error of Routes not working on Nginx on my Ubuntu 16.04

To solve Routes problem, i tried the following code and its just working fine for me.

Open project conf file using following command

sudo nano /etc/nginx/sites-available/projectname 

Then do the following changes in this file

server {
        listen 80;
        listen [::]:80;

       root /var/www/project_name/public;

       server_name server_name;

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

}

Important thing is to change the try_files in location block.

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

This is the correct basic config for Laravel and Nginx:

server {
    listen   80 default_server;

    root /var/www/laravel/public/;
    index index.php index.html index.htm;

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

    # pass the PHP scripts to FastCGI server listening on /var/run/php5-fpm.sock
    location ~ \.php$ {
            try_files $uri /index.php =404;
            fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;
            fastcgi_index index.php;
            fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
            include fastcgi_params;
    }
}

EDIT: Instead of:

fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;

As of November 2018, as PHP 7.2 is out, it would be:

fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php7.2-fpm.sock;

I had the same issue, but updating the default configuration made it work.

location @rewrite {
        rewrite ^/(.*)$ /index.php?_url=/$1;
    }
    location / {
            try_files $uri $uri/ @rewrite;
    }  

Let me know if this worked for you or not.
sudo service nginx restart after changing the configuration.

I had same problem after updating few lines nginx working fine..

It's for windows ( change root acording your file system )

1.root html/laravel; #Update Here - add project folder name after html

2.try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php$is_args$args; #Update Here - Add this for 404 not found error

server {
    listen 80; # IPv4
    server_name localhost;

    ## Parametrization using hostname of access and log filenames.
    access_log logs/localhost_access.log;
    error_log logs/localhost_error.log;

    ## Root and index files.
    root html/laravel; #Update Here - add project folder name after html
    index  index.php index.html index.htm;

    ## If no favicon exists return a 204 (no content error).
    location = /favicon.ico {
        try_files $uri =204;
        log_not_found off;
        access_log off;
    }

    ## Don't log robots.txt requests.
    location = /robots.txt {
        allow all;
        log_not_found off;
        access_log off;
    }
    ## Try the requested URI as files before handling it to PHP.
    location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php$is_args$args; #Update Here - Add this for 404 not found error
        ## Regular PHP processing.
        location ~ \.php$ {
            try_files  $uri =404;
            fastcgi_pass   php_processes;
            fastcgi_index  index.php;
            fastcgi_param  SCRIPT_FILENAME    $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
            include        fastcgi_params;
        }

        ## Static files
        location ~* \.(?:css|gif|htc|ico|js|jpe?g|png|swf)$ {
            expires max;
            log_not_found off;
            ## No need to bleed constant updates. Send the all shebang in one
            ## fell swoop.
            tcp_nodelay off;
            ## Set the OS file cache.
            open_file_cache max=1000 inactive=120s;
            open_file_cache_valid 45s;
            open_file_cache_min_uses 2;
            open_file_cache_errors off;
        }

        ## Keep a tab on the 'big' static files.
        location ~* ^.+\.(?:ogg|pdf|pptx?)$ {
            expires 30d;
            ## No need to bleed constant updates. Send the all shebang in one
            ## fell swoop.
            tcp_nodelay off;
        }
        } # / location

} 

Answer 6

When I sent parameters by get I did not recognize them, I just have to activate the following: try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php$is_args$args;

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