Multi Site WordPress rewrite rules in Nginx

I'm trying to run a multi domain blog installation with WordPress and Nginx. The last step is to configure some rewrite rules in `.htaccess` (apache only) for the webserver. How do I translate this into Nginx rewrite rules?

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]

# uploaded files
RewriteRule ^files/(.+) wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f [OR]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d
RewriteRule ^ - [L]
RewriteRule . index.php [L]

Above is missing a space after the rewrite ^.*/files/(.*(html|jpg|....... you need a space after the $ and before /wp-includes/ms-files.php. Cheers!

[nginx rewrite rules example for Wordpress 3][1] :

server{
server_name *.example.com;
listen 80;
#on server block
##necessary if using a multi-site plugin
server_name_in_redirect off;
##necessary if running Nginx behind a reverse-proxy
port_in_redirect off;
access_log /var/log/nginx/example-com-access.log;

location / {
root /var/www/example.com/wordpress;
index index.html index.htm index.php;
rewrite ^.*/files/(.*)$ /wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$1 last;
if (!-e $request_filename) {
rewrite ^.+/?(/wp-.*) $1 last;
rewrite ^.+/?(/.*\.php)$ $1 last;
rewrite ^(.+)$ /index.php?q=$1 last;
}
}

location ~* ^.+\.(html|jpg|jpeg|gif|png|ico|css|zip|tgz|gz|rar|bz2|doc|xls|exe|pdf|ppt|txt|tar|mid|midi|wav|bmp|rtf|js)$
{
root /var/www/example.com/wordpress;
rewrite ^/.*(/wp-.*/.*\.(html|jpg|jpeg|gif|png|ico|css|zip|tgz|gz|rar|bz2|doc|xls|exe|pdf|ppt|txt|tar|mid|midi|wav|bmp|rtf|js))$ $1 last;
rewrite ^.*/files/(.*(html|jpg|jpeg|gif|png|ico|css|zip|tgz|gz|rar|bz2|doc|xls|exe|pdf|ppt|txt|tar|mid|midi|wav|bmp|rtf|js))$ /wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$1 last;
expires 30d;
break;
}

location ~ wp\-.*\.php|wp\-admin|\.php$ {
include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
fastcgi_index index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /var/www/example.com/wordpress$fastcgi_script_name;
}
}

Instead of:

location ~ wp\-.*\.php|wp\-admin|\.php$ {

Change it to:

location ~ .php$

Allows it to direct

blog.com/wp-admin

to

blog.com/wp-admin/

This nginx rewrite rules for WordPress have solved my problem perfectly,including changing ex.com/wp-admin to ex.com/wp-admin/.

But i've found a bug inside which wasted me several hours as follows：
If the static url include `.html` just like `/%category%/%post_id%.html`,you have to insted of:

<!-- begin snippet: js hide: false -->

<!-- language: lang-html -->

location ~* ^.+\.(html|jpg|jpeg|gif|png|ico|css|zip|tgz|gz|rar|bz2|doc|xls|exe|pdf|ppt|txt|tar|mid|midi|wav|bmp|rtf|js)$
{
root /var/www/example.com/wordpress;
rewrite ^/.*(/wp-.*/.*\.(html|jpg|jpeg|gif|png|ico|css|zip|tgz|gz|rar|bz2|doc|xls|exe|pdf|ppt|txt|tar|mid|midi|wav|bmp|rtf|js))$ $1 last;
rewrite ^.*/files/(.*(html|jpg|jpeg|gif|png|ico|css|zip|tgz|gz|rar|bz2|doc|xls|exe|pdf|ppt|txt|tar|mid|midi|wav|bmp|rtf|js))$ /wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$1 last;
expires 30d;
break;
}

<!-- end snippet -->

Change it to:

<!-- begin snippet: js hide: false -->

<!-- language: lang-html -->

location ~* ^.+\.(jpg|jpeg|gif|png|ico|css|zip|tgz|gz|rar|bz2|doc|xls|exe|pdf|ppt|txt|tar|mid|midi|wav|bmp|rtf|js)$
{
root /var/www/example.com/wordpress;
rewrite ^/.*(/wp-.*/.*\.(jpg|jpeg|gif|png|ico|css|zip|tgz|gz|rar|bz2|doc|xls|exe|pdf|ppt|txt|tar|mid|midi|wav|bmp|rtf|js))$ $1 last;
rewrite ^.*/files/(.*(jpg|jpeg|gif|png|ico|css|zip|tgz|gz|rar|bz2|doc|xls|exe|pdf|ppt|txt|tar|mid|midi|wav|bmp|rtf|js))$ /wp-includes/ms-files.php?file=$1 last;
expires 30d;
break;
}

<!-- end snippet -->

Or,u'll had '404 page not found' error in the content pages!
