[opencms-dev] Problem with nginx opencms workplace configuration

[Marc Johnson]

Yup, I had been thinking that while waiting for replies here and you got it  exactly right.  

It was easy.  My problem is that I'm not that great at nginx rewrite rules.  For everyone's edification I just added the line below after my main location block(location / {    proxy_redirect          off; etc...)

    location /opencms { 
            rewrite ^/opencms/(.*)$ /$1; 
    }

Hi Marc,

I guess you have to add a location for "/opencms" to be passed to http://127.0.0.1:8081/opencms/ as well or prevent in some other way that requests that already point to the opencms servlet become prefixed with another "/opencms" again.

The workplace is working generally except the popup boxes(gallery, vfs file paths, in admin... the Group box, etc ...) within the workspace are throwing errors.

Sure enough when I remove the opencms and do just mydomain.com/system...(path from above), the correct working workplace page is rendered.  This is what's happening in every other case so the workplace is quite functional.
