Question Nginx with Wordpress in subdirectory

[Dirk]

Hi guys,

I am running against a wall and really hope someone might help me out :-/
I am running 5 Wordpress-Installations on my Server
4 directly in the httpdocs-directory and the 5th in a subdirectory, namely:
/var/www/vhosts/liesenfeld.de/httpdocs/WP

When I switch on nginx, the 4 WP-Pages will continue to work as expected, BUT the 5th in the subdirectory will not work anymore: doesn't matter which page I click in the menu, it will always end up on the homepage. Like: I click on dvd ~ Liesenfeld.de and it will jump back to Tantra-Seminare und Selbsterkenntnis von Dirk Liesenfeld & Sarah Lenze
It is probably only something small, but I cannot find it :-(

Greetings,
Dirk.

Do you have an .htaccess file in the directory with the 5th site? If so, those rules need to be converted....

 

[Dirk]

Thanks, Mark for the answer.
I thought since I am running Nginx with Apache, that htaccess will still work - but obviously it doesn't ;-)
I do have two htaccess-files. One in the httpdocs base and one in the WP directory. Do I need to convert both?
Here are the nginx.conf and the two htaccess-files - it would be really great if you could give me information on what to convert into nginx-config.


#user nginx;
worker_processes 1;
#error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log;
#error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log notice;
#error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log info;
#pid /var/run/nginx.pid;
include /etc/nginx/modules.conf.d/*.conf;
events {
worker_connections 1024;
}
http {
include mime.types;
default_type application/octet-stream;
#log_format main '$remote_addr - $remote_user [$time_local] "$request" '
# '$status $body_bytes_sent "$http_referer" '
# '"$http_user_agent" "$http_x_forwarded_for"';
#access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log main;
sendfile on;
#tcp_nopush on;
#keepalive_timeout 0;
keepalive_timeout 65;
#tcp_nodelay on;
#gzip on;
#gzip_disable "MSIE [1-6]\.(?!.*SV1)";
server_tokens off;
include /etc/nginx/conf.d/*.conf;
}
# override global parameters e.g. worker_rlimit_nofile
include /etc/nginx/*global_params;

There's actually a plugin developed by Plesk that looks like will do the job, however, I have zero experience with it.

htaccess to nginx extension - Plesk
