Question

I am really new to nginx and wanted to setup a rewrite but it allways fails for me. What I want is to rewrite file.php to page.php?page=file, but I only want this to occour if file.php dont exist. Can anyone help me with this?

I’ve tried a few rewrites myself but nothing works…

I got it working with this:

location ~ (.*/)([\w\-\.]+)\.php {
    try_files $uri $1page.php?page=$2$args;
    include fastcgi_params;
    fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
}
