SEF URLs & Nginx - first Virtuemart link fails

(1/1)

HashNotAdam:
Hi, I am hosting a site for a client that is running:

* Joomla 1.5.24
* VirtueMart 1.1.9I have just moved it to a new server using:

* Ubuntu 10.04
* Nginx 1.0.12
* FastCGI
* PHP 5.3.2
Since moving, the first time you click a VirtueMart category link, you are redirected to /index.php?q=[URL you should be at]&vmcchk=1&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=1

Not only is this a poor looking URL but it also doesn't show the content that is associated with the link that was pressed.

The site is http://www.writeboards.com.au/ and the products are in the left-hand side navigation.

The annoying thing is that it happens only once so I have to keep opening new Chrome Incognito windows to reproduce the error.

The nginx configuration is pretty straight-forward:

--- Code: ---server {
    listen          80;
    server_name     www.writeboards.com.au;

    index           index.php index.html;
    root            /var/www/writeboards/www/htdocs;
    access_log      /var/www/writeboards/www/logs/access.log;
    error_log       /var/www/writeboards/www/logs/error.log;

    proxy_redirect             off;
    proxy_set_header           Host $host;
    proxy_set_header           X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
    proxy_set_header           X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    proxy_set_header           X-Forwarded-Host $host;
    proxy_connect_timeout      120;
    proxy_send_timeout         120;
    proxy_read_timeout         240;
    proxy_buffer_size          32k;
    proxy_buffers              4 32k;
    proxy_busy_buffers_size    64k;
    proxy_temp_file_write_size 64k;

    location ~* \.(engine|inc|ss|info|install|module|profile|po|sh|.*sql|theme|tpl(\.php)?|xtmpl)$|^(code-style\.pl|Entries.*|Repository|Root|Tag|Template)$ {
        deny all;
    }

    location / {
        try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?q=$request_uri;
    }

    location ~* \.php {
        error_page 404 = @passthrough_nolimit;
        return 404;
    }

    location @passthrough {
        error_page 403 = @passthrough_nolimit;
        error_page 404 = @passthrough_limit;

        if ($remote_addr = '<address that has no limit, eg, your address>') { return 403; }
        return 404;
    }

    location @passthrough_limit {
        limit_req zone=default burst=10;

        include fastcgi_params;
        fastcgi_pass  unix:/tmp/php.socket;
        break;
    }

    location @passthrough_nolimit {
        include fastcgi_params;
        fastcgi_pass  unix:/tmp/php.socket;
        break;
    }

        location ~* /(images|cache|media|logs|tmp)/.*\.(php|pl|py|jsp|asp|sh|cgi)$ {
        return 403;
        error_page 403 /403_error.html;
    }

    location ~* ^.+\.(jpg|jpeg|gif|png|css|zip|pdf|txt|js|flv|swf|html|htm)$ {
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP  $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
    }
}

--- End code ---

SOLUTION
To anyone else who gets this issue, unchecking "Enable the Cookie Check?" in the VirtueMart configuration fixed this issue.

While I don't know the underlining issue, having this enabled was causing a "303 See other" which in turn loaded an incorrect page.
