Hi,

i have the following rewrite rules

rewrite /files/documents/.\* /engine last;  
rewrite /templates/(.\*(css|js))$ /engine/backend  
…

if (!-e $request\_filename) {  
rewrite . /shopware.php last;  
}

i want everything under  
/foobarshopconnection/  
to be excludet from the rewrite so that it can be accessed.  
example: /foobarshopconnection/index.php/testcall/test/bartest

can someone tell me how to do that?

Thanks  
Alex
