My goal is to rewrite a URL for nginx, but I found much more help for Apache. I also found an nginx converter, so whether you are an expert in mod_rewrite or nginx rewrite, I'd appreciate your help. I am trying to rewrite a url like so: index.php/value1/value2/value3/misc=misc&test=test&any=here to: index.php?var1=value1&var2=$value2&var3=value3&misc=misc&test=test&any=here So I will have three variables that are fixed, and the rest are dynamic. The code I have come up with is: Using the converter at http://www.anilcetin.com/convert-apa...cess-to-nginx/, it gave me this for nginx: Do you see any issues with this rule and if so, please advise me. Thank you for your time.

I found this on Nginx book. Rewrite rules The most common source of worries during an HTTP server switch is the rewrite rules. Unfortunately, Nginx is not directly compatible with the Apache rewrite rules in two regards: • Usually, rewrite rules are placed within .htaccess files, as discussed in the previous section. Nginx offers no such mechanism, so rewrite rules will have to be placed in a different location. • The syntax of the rewrite instructions and conditions is quite different and will need to be adapted. This section will approach some of the issues encountered when porting rules to Nginx, and then will provide some prewritten rules for a couple of major web applications. Apache Module Nginx Module Status Configure switch mod_rewrite rewrite Included by default --without-
