Rewrite question

Server NGINX
1

Hi guys,

stupid but tricky question. In my “server” configuration, I added two
“location” directives:

location ~* .css|.js|.jpg|.jpeg|.png|.gif|.swf|.svg|.tiff$ {
expires 30d;
}

location /medias/ {
rewrite ^/medias/(.*) http://static.mydomain.com/$1 permanent;
}

The rewrite works fine except for jpg files. I suppose there is a
conflict between the two locations. It works if I comment out the first
location. I tried to invert locations or to add a “break;” after the
rewrite command or to replace “permanent” with “last” or “break”.
Nothing does the trick.

If you have any idea, that would be great.

Tks

Axel

Maybe try to put the /medias/ location on top?
