[angelochen960]

Hi,
new in ths nginx, with following config, I want to achieve:

http://sample.com/   render index.html
http://sample.com/test, or anything after '/' path, render index.html

server {
    listen          80;
    server_name     sample.com ;
    root /var/www/sample/public_html;

   location  / {
        index  index.html index.htm;
   }

   location ~ ^/.* {
        index index.html;
   }


 }

but when I do this, and got 404 error, anything missing here? Thanks Angelo

 curl -I http://sample.com/test

 HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
