My issue:
I cannot change my URL e.g. /dfdrgr.php?page=dfgfg to /rrrr. I’ve a .txt file contained e.g. /rrrr /dfdrgr.php?page=dfgfg; and a redirected.map file contained
# Redirects map file – auto generated
include /home/fxg/conf/web/ron.click/redirects.txt;
And a redirects.conf contaned:
# Nginx map block – auto generated
map $uri $rewrite_target {
default "";
include /home/fxg/conf/web/ron.click/redirects.map;
}
map $rewrite_target $should_redirect {
"" 0;
default 1;
}
The nginx.conf is contained:

How I encountered the problem:
There is no problem in running the nginx but I get 404 error in my browser for https://ron.click/rrrr. I tested it using nginx -t but more probably I’m doing something wrong in nginx.conf or nginx.ssl.conf or redirection.conf. I’m using Hestia.
Solutions I’ve tried:
Version of NGINX or NGINX adjacent software (e.g. NGINX Gateway Fabric):
1.29.3
Deployment environment:
Minimal NGINX config to reproduce your issue (preferably running on https://tech-playground.com/playgrounds/nginx for ease of debugging, and if not as a code block): (Tip → Run nginx -T to print your entire NGINX config to your terminal.)
NGINX access/error log: (Tip → You can usually find the logs in the /var/log/nginx directory.) for error log: 2025/12/09 19:35:32 [emerg] 1700546#1700546: “proxy_pass” directive is not allow ed here in /etc/nginx/conf.d/domains/ron.click.ssl.conf:23
