location ^~/images/ {
root /mnt/disha;
}
location ^~/pdf/ {
root /mnt/disha;
}
location ^~/contact/ {
root /mnt/disha;
}
location ^~ /excel {
root /mnt/disha;
}
How can I combine these 4 into 1 location?
I tried this:
location ~ ^/(images|pdf|contact|excel)/ {
root /mnt/disha;
}
It worked fine with 4 location, then nginx comes 404 Not Found once combining with 1.
I also tried location ~* ^/(images|pdf|contact|excel).
all methods I tried is invalid, what should I do?
here is my entire server conf:
server{
listen 80;
listen 443 ssl;
server_name erp.xxx.com;
index index.html;
location ~ ^/(images|pdf|contact|excel)/ {
root /mnt/disha;
}
location ^~/{
root /mnt/disha/erp;
}
ssl_certificate /etc/xxx/xxx.pem;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/xxx/xxx.key;
ssl_ciphers ECDHE-RSA-AES128-GCM-
SHA256:ECDHE:ECDH:AES:HIGH:!NULL:!aNULL:!MD5:!ADH:!RC4;
ssl_protocols TLSv1 TLSv1.1 TLSv1.2;
ssl_prefer_server_ciphers on;
}
the 404 request i tested:
wget http://erp.xxx.com/excel/export_outbound_stock_20200321150255.xls
The ^~ modifier causes a matching prefix location to take precedence over all regular expression location blocks.
The location ^~ / { ... } effectively disables any regular expression location.
To change your four prefix location blocks into a single regular expression location block, you must also remove the ^~ modifier from the final location block.
For example:
root /mnt/disha/erp;
location / {
}
location ~* ^/(images|pdf|contact|excel)/ {
root /mnt/disha;
}
In fact, the location / block can be omitted if it is empty, as the root statement can be placed in the server block context.
