Below is a much simplified version of what I have in the configuration file of a server run by Nginx 1.2.5, yet it causes 301 Moved Permanently with Location: http://example.com/phpmyadmin/ before serving data, which is not what I expected from the default behavior of the rewrite directive.
server {
listen 80;
location /pma {
rewrite ^ /phpmyadmin;
}
location /phpmyadmin {
root /var/www;
index Documentation.html;
}
}
(Again, the example is highly simplified and altered, the config makes perfect sense in its original form.)
When I go to http://example.com/pma in a browser, the data is served but the URL in the address bar changes to http://example.com/phpmyadmin/ while it was supposed to stay http://example.com/pma.
How do I avoid Nginx sending 301 Moved Permanently so that it doesn't expose the actual directory structure on my server?
