Keep getting "does not match "

I have a complicated setup where I’m running WordPress in the /blog/
subfolder, and then Vanilla Forums 2 in the /forums/ folder under root.
The
config below works fine for almost all pages except all images under the
/blog/wp-content/gallery/ folder. In the log I keep getting “/forum/”
does
not match “/blog/wp-content/gallery/something_something…”. Shouldn’t
“/blog/wp-content/…” be matched on the “location /” entry? I have
confirmed the path is accurate for the images, so the try_files under
the
main “locaton /” should catch it. Any help would be appriciated:

server {

    #error_log /var/log/nginx/rewrite_log notice;
    rewrite_log on;

    listen  80;
    server_name domain_name.com www.domain_name.com;
    root /var/www/domain_name.com/blog;
    index index.php index.html;

    # Main site is the blog, so last condition rewrites for WP
    location / {
            try_files $uri $uri/ @blog;
    }

    location @blog {
            try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?p=$uri$is_args$args;
    }

    location ~ \.php$ {
            include /etc/nginx/fastcgi_params;

            # Set default script path to WP blog
            set $php_root /var/www/domain_name.com/blog;

            # If this is a forum request, change the root
            if ($request_uri ~ /forum/) {
                    set $php_root /var/www/domain_name.com;

            if (!-e $request_filename) {
                    rewrite ^/forum/(.*)$ /forum/index.php?p=$1 

last;
break;
}
}

    location ~ /\.ht {
            access_log off;
            log_not_found off;
            deny  all;
    }

}

Hi there,

/blog/wp-content/gallery/ folder.

The uri-matching location directives you have are:

    location / {
    location ~ \.php$ {
    location /forum/ {
    location ~ /\.ht {

What http request is made that leads to unexpected behaviour?
