How to rewrite urls in nginx ?

[djelica]

Alright, what i want to do is rewrite urls on one of my domains out of few.
For example i have 1stdomain.com and 2nddomain.com.
I want to rewrite urls only for 2nddomain.com and rewrites not to affect any other domains.
My kloxo version is: 6.5.0.f-2014091101

Until now i have tried modifying /home/nginx/conf/domains/2nddomain.com.conf but once i run fixweb and restart nginx, my changes are gone...

I want to do only one simple rewrite for now which for apache would look like this:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond    %{REQUEST_FILENAME}  !-f
RewriteCond    %{REQUEST_FILENAME}  !-d
RewriteRule ^([A-Za-z0-9-]+)/?$ file.php?path=$1 [QSA,L]

End url should look like: www.2nddomain.com/some-path-goes-here/
It should be available for: http, https, www and non-www domain.

Please let me know where to put and what.

Offtopic:
I have noticed some strange behavior on default nginx installation which is that mydomain.com/any-path/any-depth/ leads to index file which isn't expected to happen, this can produce issues for some users who are duplicate-content aware. (this isn't good for SEO, not good at all).

Don't change /home/nginx/conf/domains/2nddomain.com.conf directly but copy /home/nginx/tpl/domains.conf.tpl to custom.domains.conf.tpl and then modified this custom file. And then running 'sh /script/fixweb; sh /script/restart-web'.

1. Copy php-fpm_standard.conf and php-fpm_wildcards.conf to custom.php-fpm_standard.conf and custom.php-fpm_wildcards.conf in /opt/configs/nginx/conf/globals
2. Modified custom.php-fpm_standard.conf and custom.php-fpm_wildcards.conf in portion:

Code: [Select]

    location / {
        ## MR -- move to ~lxcenter.conf
        #limit_conn addr 25;

        try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php;
    }
to:

Code: [Select]

    location / {
        ## MR -- move to ~lxcenter.conf
        #limit_conn addr 25;

        #try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php;

        # YOUR NEW REWRITE HERE
    }
3. Run 'sh /script/fixweb; sh /script/restart-web -y'
