/panel wouldnt load on Nginx

Hi there,

I’m trying to install Kirby on Nginx. I’ve made the changes to the file on site/config/config.php as per the documentation:

c::set('panel.install', true);

Here’s my nginx server block file:

 server {

    listen 80;
    listen [::]:80;
    root BLA BLA BLA BLA;
    index index.php index.html index.htm index.nginx-debian.html;

    server_name BLA BLA BLA BLA;

    location / {
        try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
    }

    location ~ \.php$ {
        include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
        fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock;
    }

    location ~ /\.ht {
        deny all;
    }

    listen 443 ssl; # managed by Certbot
    ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/BLA BLA BLA BLA /fullchain.pem; # managed by Certbot
    ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/BLA BLA BLA BLA /privkey.pem; # managed by Certbot
    ssl_session_cache shared:le_nginx_SSL:1m; # managed by Certbot
    ssl_session_timeout 1440m; # managed by Certbot

    ssl_protocols TLSv1 TLSv1.1 TLSv1.2; # managed by Certbot
    ssl_prefer_server_ciphers on; # managed by Certbot

    ssl_ciphers BLA BLA BLA BLA 

    if ($scheme != "https") {
        return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
    } # managed by Certbot


    # Redirect non-https traffic to https
    # if ($scheme != "https") {
    #     return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
    # } # managed by Certbot

# Don't hint these as folders
rewrite ^/(content|site|kirby)$ /error last;

# block content
rewrite ^/content/(.*).(txt|md|mdown)$ /error last;

# block all files in the site and kirby folder from being accessed directly
rewrite ^/(site|kirby)/(.*)$ /error last;

# removes trailing slashes (prevents SEO duplicate content issues)
if (!-d $request_filename) {
    rewrite ^/(.+)/$ /$1 permanent;
}

# panel links
location ~ /panel/ {
    try_files $uri $uri/ /panel/index.php?$uri&$args;
}

# site links
location ~ / {
    try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$uri&$args;
}

# Prevent clients from accessing hidden files (starting with a dot)
# This is particularly important if you store .htpasswd files in the site hierarchy
location ~ (?:^|/)\. {
    deny all;
}

# Prevent clients from accessing to backup/config/source files
location ~ (?:\.(?:bak|config|sql|fla|psd|ini|log|sh|inc|swp|dist)|~)$ {
    deny all;
}

}

Anyone can help? The rest of the pages work fine on kirby like about/ or contact/ but panel/ wouldnt load.

Thanks in advance.

Maybe this post helps, the Panel config looks a bit different; Nginx and Panel configuration problem

I’ve fixed this problem by installing:

apt install php7.0-mbstring php7.0-zip php7.0-xml
