[Solved] Nginx another question

I tried this:

worker_processes  1;

events {
    worker_connections  1024;
}


http {
    include       mime.types;
    default_type  application/octet-stream;

    sendfile        on;
    keepalive_timeout  65;

    server {
            listen 80;
            server_name localhost;

            root /nginx/www/laravel842/public;
            location / {
                index index.html index.htm index.php;
            try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string;
            }

        location ~ \.php$ {
        try_files $uri /index.php = 404;
        fastcgi_pass  127.0.0.1:9000;
        fastcgi_index index.php;
        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
        include fastcgi_params;
        }



       
   
    }
   
}

That worked, but the problem is the url is like:

http://localhost/

and

http://localhost/login/

I wanted:

http://localhost/laravel842/login

I also tried:

worker_processes  1;

events {
    worker_connections  1024;
}


http {
    include       mime.types;
    default_type  application/octet-stream;

    sendfile        on;
    keepalive_timeout  65;

    server {
            listen 81;   #tried various ports 80 also.
            server_name laravel.test;
            # server_name localhost;     # This line works.
            
            root /nginx/www/laravel842/public;
            location / {
                index index.html index.htm index.php;
            try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string;
            }

        location ~ \.php$ {
        try_files $uri /index.php = 404;
        fastcgi_pass  127.0.0.1:9000;
        fastcgi_index index.php;
        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
        include fastcgi_params;
        }



       
   
    }
   
}

But nginx doesn't seem to work with another server name, I only got:

Hmm. We’re having trouble finding that site.

We can’t connect to the server at www.laravel.test.

If that address is correct, here are three other things you can try:

    Try again later.
    Check your network connection.
    If you are connected but behind a firewall, check that Firefox has permission to access the Web.

Any idea why laravel.test for the server name will not work? Thanks, I am new to nginx. I did add in the host file:

	
127.0.0.1       laravel842.test
    

After going over many stackoverflow and serverfault post, finally found one that worked on Windows.

Worked perfect. But if anyone has a better config that works in Windows, please share.
