Thanks Maxim, that's exactly what I did do, as my follow-up post
mentioned. All sorted now and working wonderfully. There is one other
thing, though...At the moment, I have two location blocks with identical
content, in order to match two different patterns. One matches all URLs
starting with certain strings, e.g.
location ~ ^/(abc|def){
The other is an exact match for the top level page:
location = /{
Ideally I would like to use a single pattern which combined both. I
thought to use regex end markers instead of the exact match, but I'm not
sure if it's syntactically correct (and this is a very busy server i
don't want to mess about with too much experimenting). So would
something like this work?
location ~ (^/abc|^/def/|^/$)
