Sorry edogawan. That was funny :)

Appa, yes I agree, it is much clearer with the blocks now making sense.

NOT working though. I will deal with Wordpress etc later. Want my root folder stuff to work first. Here are my simple rules.


#----------------
location / {
rewrite ^/([-~a-zA-Z0-9_\.]+)$ /site/get?u=$1;
}

location /site {

location /site/get {
fastcgi_pass unix:/dev/shm/php5-fpm.MYDOMAIN.sock;
include fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
fastcgi_param PATH_TRANSLATED $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_NAME $fastcgi_script_name;
}

try_files $uri $uri/ /site/get?u=$uri =404;

} # END OF SITE BLOCK
#----------------



Questions:

(1) What am I missing here? The "fastcgi_params" is a file that has the usual bits and pieces.

(2) Will a more precise regexp like above be faster, or should i leave it as "(.*)"?

Thanks@
