How to quick and easy remove part of an URL in Nginx with HttpRewriteModule?
Solution 1:
Do you mean something like:
rewrite ^/component(.*)$ $1 last;
Solution 2:
Depending where you define the rewrite directive you have two ways to implement it:
A. In the server context
server {
...
rewrite ^/component(.*)$ $1 last;
...
}
B. In the location context
location /component {
rewrite ^/component(.*)$ $1 break;
}
Teo, why did you change the flag last to break? Because, if this directive is put inside of a location context, the last flag will make nginx to run 10 cycles and return the 500 error.
