Permanent Redirect on nginx

[Mumanyi, Bravismore]

Francis, your config did magic! Kudos...

However, I just wondering the cause for the redirect URL having two trailing slashes "//" i.e. "http://archives.unam.edu.na//"? The links seem to work though.

The two server blocks are as follows.


server {
    listen 80;
    listen 443 ssl;
    server_name archives.unam.na;
    return 301 $scheme://archives.unam.edu.na$request_uri;
}

server {

  listen 80;
  listen 443 ssl;
  root /usr/share/nginx/atom;

  # http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpCoreModule#server_name
  # _ means catch any, but it's better if you replace this with your server
  # name, e.g. archives.foobar.com
  #server_name _;
  server_name archives.unam.edu.na;

Regards

Have two server{} blocks.

The one with "server_name new-name;" should be the fuller one, doing everything you want.

The other should have "server_name old-name;" and "return 301 http://new-name$request_uri;" and not a lot more.
