Provide Nginx Config Example
Hello,
I am curious if there is any plans to include a example Nginx configuration? More and more people are ditching Apache for Nginx. The only examples I could find were for people using Nginx as a reverse proxy to Apache. Almost everything is working except for the weblinks, they either return 404 or a generic error page in Chrome. I would assume this is due to the use of mod_rewrite in the .htaccess files, I haven't been able to successfully convert them to Nginx. Or if a user has a working example they could post up for users to reference would be EXTREMELY helpful. From looking around there is a lot of people looking for this.

I reinstalled FileRun, and now everything is working as expected even with Nginx. When I clean up my Nginx config I will post it for others to reference.
If having trouble to connect to FileRun on NGINX using the mobile apps, use this: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/26374986/nginx-returns-a-404-for-urls-like-index-php-some-path
Here is my Nginx Config. This has been edited down for this post to remove personal stuff, but I believe it should work.
Also, I use a PHP FPM Pool for FileRun, which I don't show here.
WebDav works with this config as tested using cadaver, but the first folder shown is @Home and not My Files - confusing, yes!!

While FileRun works with an incomplete/incorrect configuration, access via WebDAV (includes Nextcloud apps) won't work. The configuration example above includes correct handling of PATH_INFO and enables FileRun's URL "http://hostname/dav.php/" (note trailing slash) to work properly.
Should I copy the example at "https://www.nginx.com/resources/wiki/start/topics/examples/phpfcgi/" to my_server.conf? Now I can view "http://my_ip/dav.php" through webpage but I still can't log in by Windows Explorer or software.
Strongly hope anyone can post an example of nginx conf.
Please read: http://docs.filerun.com/webdav You have to append / after dav.php. Windows web folders is not supported unfortunately, as it is not standards compliant.
