advanced help can't show README.txt

[spacereactor]

some modules have their help text in README.txt and it can't show on the nginx setting

[perusio]

Hello,

That's not very kosher :( Nevertheless the best thing to do is to enable on a case by case basis each README.txt and constrain it to be internal. Can you give me an example of a module that uses a README for help so that I can try it out?

Thanks,
António

Just install the advanced_help module.
When accessing any module's help, you'll get a 404 (except if that module uses help hooks, and few do)

[perusio]

Fixed now. Try it out. Thanks for your patience.

i have the some error, whose function is to activate advanced_help? for exemple i can't see the html files in /help/classified/views from module https://drupal.org/project/ed_classified get 404 error.

.txt files can be seen perfectly, but I have a problem with .html files

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but I also had olariuromeo's problem of not being able to see anything else generated at /help/. This was one of the first google hits, so posting the solution here in case it helps others who come across the same problem.

I'm not sure I totally understand the need for the nested location in perusio's initial fix, but adding a try_files $uri @drupal-noargs; after the more specific location fixed it for me. My config is based on a fairly recent version of perusio's and that section now looks like this:

        location ^~ /help/ {
                location ~* ^/help/[^/]*/.*.txt$ {
                        include fastcgi_params;
                        fastcgi_param QUERY_STRING q=$uri&$args;
                        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_NAME /index.php;
                        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root/index.php;
                        fastcgi_pass www;
                }
                try_files $uri @drupal-no-args;
        }
