Not working with Nginx

[fabineves]

Since the last update to version 2.5, redirection stopped working.

I have a blog that I have to use Nginx Helper Plugin and since I made the update of redirection to 2.5, all urls returned 404. I disabled Nginx Helper plugin and it worked fine.

Since I can't leave my website without Nginx Helper plugin, I had to downgrade redirection to 2.4.5.

Is there anything to fix it?

Thanks in advance.

This works on nginx, I'm running it on 2 sites.

If you use a plugin called Nginx helper, all the urls will return 404 with the new version. That's my issue.
It was working fine before the last update.

I don't use Nginx Helper, and running the plugin alongside Redirection doesn't break my site. I can't see anything obvious that would cause a problem between these two plugins.

The commits are listed here:

If it's possible for you to use git bisect to help me locate the commit that caused the issue then it will help me make whatever changes are needed.

I have been having this issue as well. I just tested the commit history and this commit is where it breaks. Anything from then on has the issue.

I see the issue Nginx Helper overrides the wp_redirect function but doesn't return true on success.

Thanks Matt, I don't understand about this much, so I'm glad you could help the developer.
