Nginx always searches index.php in the wrong directory

Hi there,

when I use your configuration and make some guesses about the content
and requests, it seems to work for me.

That is:

if the directory /var/www/html/chatserver does not exist,
then /var/www/html/index.php is processed; otherwise
/var/www/html/chatserver/index.php is processed.

What output do you get from

  curl -v http://MYSERVER.net/chatserver

? I expect a http 301 with a Location: of https://MYSERVER.net/chatserver

Do you get something else?

Then do another "curl -v" with whatever Location: you got.

Eventually you will get one url which shows the problem that you
report. What is that one url?

With that specific url, it should be possible to work out which location{}
you have told your nginx to use to handle it.

And from there, it may be more obvious where the problem that can be
solved is.
