In case anyone needs to setup EGroupWare [http://www.egroupware.org/](http://www.egroupware.org/)  
over Debian 6 / Ubuntu 11.10 and Nginx 1.1.12, here is the config file  
that we used:

# nginx - /etc/nginx/sites-available/egw

# 

server {  
listen 80;  
server\_name egw.localhost;  
root /usr/share/egroupware;  
index index.php;  
client\_max\_body\_size 8M;  
rewrite ^/egroupware/(.\*)$ /$1 last;  
try\_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args;  
location ~ .php$ {  
include /etc/nginx/fastcgi\_params;  
fastcgi\_pass unix:/tmp/php-fpm.socket;  
fastcgi\_index index.php;  
fastcgi\_param SCRIPT\_FILENAME  
$document\_root$fastcgi\_script\_name; }  
}

Hello Mark,

I had Egroupware on Apache2 and have everything now on Nginx  
Everything works fine. Exept…  
The filemanager:  
Ik can upload files en see an icon wich “proofs” that the file arrived  
on  
the server.  
But when I click on the link of that file, i get an error:  
404 Not Found  
nginx/1.2.6 (Ubuntu)

Does this work on your situation?
