access to a portal by custom URL with NGINX

[littlegeorge]

Hello,

for customizing an access to a portal by custom URL I've found the documentation for Apache at https://github.com/espocrm/documenta...tion/portal.md. But how to configure nginx for an access to a portal by custom URL?

Can anyone help me?

Has nobody an idea?

Hello,

I've tried a lot of time to get a working access by a custom portal-url to our portal based on nginx. But I've no success...
For example I want to get access to the portal
http://my-domain.tld/portal/5c3a08c31353eb361/
by
http://my-portal.my-domain.tld
So I've created this subdomain and it points to the same IP as the main domain. On the nginx server I've created a new server-block that also points to the same directory (/data/www/ESPOCRM) as well as the server-block of my-domain.tld.
All EspoCRM functionalities of my-domain.tld or working fine as well as the access to the portal by http://my-domain.tld/portal/5c3a08c31353eb361/ . But I got no access to the portal by using the custom url http://my-portal.my-domain.tld .
This is my nginx conf file for the custom url:

--------------------------------------------------------
### CONF file for my-portal.my-domain.tld
### root points to /data/www/ESPOCRM (like root of main domain my-domain.tld)

server {
listen 80;
listen [::]:80;
server_name my-portal.my-domain.tld;

root "/data/www/ESPOCRM";
index index.html index.htm index.cgi index.php ;

location ~* \.(php|phtml)$ {
fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php-fpm.sock;
fastcgi_param HOST "my-portal.my-domain.tld";
include fastcgi.conf;
}

client_max_body_size 0;

fastcgi_param HTTP_ESPO_CGI_AUTH $http_authorization;

### special directives for my-portal.my-domain.tld
### equal to documentation sample of
### https://www.espocrm.com/documentatio...ration/portal/
### for Apache:
### RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^portal-host-name.com$
### RewriteRule ^client - [L]
###
### RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^portal-host-name.com$
### RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/portal/{PORTAL_ID}/.*$
### RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /portal/{PORTAL_ID}/$1 [L]
###

rewrite ^/client/(.*) /client/$1 break;
if ($uri !~ "^/portal/5c3a08c31353eb361/.*$"){
rewrite ^/(.*)$ /portal/5c3a08c31353eb361/$1 break;
}
### end of special directives

location / {
allow all;
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string;
}
location /api/v1/ {
if (!-e $request_filename){
rewrite ^/api/v1/(.*)$ /api/v1/index.php last; break;
}
}
location /portal/ {
try_files $uri $uri/ /portal/index.php?$query_string;
}
location /api/v1/portal-access {
if (!-e $request_filename){
rewrite ^/api/v1/(.*)$ /api/v1/portal-access/index.php last; break;
}
}
location ~ /reset/?$ {
try_files /reset.html =404;
}
location ^~ (data|api)/ {
if (-e $request_filename){
return 403;
}
}

--------------------------------------------------------
You can see the errors in line 9 and 18. They are caused by rewriting /portal/index.php with /portal/5c3a08c31353eb361/portal/index.php.But if I changed the rewriting with /portal/5c3a08c31353eb361/index.php by inserting the statementin the conf file
rewrite ^/portal/(.*)$ /portal/5c3a08c31353eb361/$1 break;
directly before
rewrite ^/(.*)$ /portal/5c3a08c31353eb361/$1 break;
I got an error, too (see lines 10 and 20):

Hello.
Please read this and check if you didn't miss something https://www.digitalocean.com/communi...n-ubuntu-16-04. If nothing isn't missed, and it is still doesn't work, try to input next URL: http://my-portal.my-domain.tld/portal. When I configured my apache2 for portal access according to recommended in Espo documentation parameters it helped me to get access to my portal.
