Hello,
I am using nginx 1.0.5 on debian squeeze. A domain with an german umlaut
‘ä’ wont work. Can someone give me a little help how to solve this
problem?

Posted at Nginx Forum:
German umlauts are not allowed in domains. If you use an umlaut-domain
it
is encoded as an IDN-domain (see here:
Internationalisierter Domainname – Wikipedia)
so dmin.example becomes xn–dmin-moa0i.example. The umlaut is converted
by the browser that sends the IDN-name to nginx.

This[1] wiki article should explain it. You could try to use encoded
domain name in nginx config files.

Yes, IDN should be set in server_name:
server_name xn--bratwrst-b6a.de; # bratwrst.de
You can search in Goolge “IDN converter” for online services such as:
