cannot get cgit display anything except the repo listing page

[Torsten Kuehnel <net_seeker@web.de>]

Dear cgit developer,

i have a problem getting cgit display useful information.
i compiled and installed cgit-1.2.3 like it is decribed in the README file and set it up via nginx fastcgi fcgiwrap

nginx config:

server {
	listen 85.17.xx.xx:443 ssl;
	server_name my.domain.com;
        root /var/www/htdocs/cgit;

        access_log  /var/log/cgit/access.log;
        error_log   /var/log/cgit/error.log;

        ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/my.domain.com/fullchain.pem;
        ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/my.domain.com/privkey.pem;
        include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-nginx.conf;
        ssl_dhparam /etc/letsencrypt/ssl-dhparams.pem;
	try_files   $uri @cgit;

        location ~* ^.+\.(css|png|ico)$ {
                 expires 0;
            }

        location @cgit {
                include fastcgi_params;
                fastcgi_param  SCRIPT_FILENAME  /var/www/htdocs/cgit/cgit.cgi;
                fastcgi_pass   unix:/var/run/fcgiwrap.socket;
                fastcgi_param  PATH_INFO $uri;
                fastcgi_param  HTTP_HOST $server_name;
                fastcgi_param  QUERY_STRING  $args;
        }
}


/etc/cgitrc:

root-title=Git Verzeichnisse
css=/cgit.css
logo=/cgit.png
snapshots=tar.gz tar.bz2

scan-path=/tmp/

virtual-root=/
enable-index-links=1
enable-log-filecount=1
enable-log-linecount=1
enable-commit-graph=1

In the /tmp/ directory is a git repository "repo01" with one commit in it, owned completely by www-data, the user nginx is run with.

The result ist displaying the proper cgit "welcome" page with the one repo listed, Idle for 8 minutes. But the problem is, following any of the presented links like "summary", "log", or "tree", results in displaying the same entry page which lists the repo, but shows no content.

Spent to days on playing around with the nginx and cgitrc config, but nothing useful happens. The permissions on the repo are fully set to the www-data user. The url changes when i choose a link, but the displayed result is always the same, displaying the overview page of available repos.

Thanks for any help in advance.
