Hi,
I'm trying to configure a vhost where in the default case I want it to get
the files from /opt/nginx/html but when the uri starts with "/users/" I
want to to deliver the files from /web/users/ instead:

location / {
root /opt/nginx/html;
index index.html index.htm;
}

location ~* ^/users/ {
root /web/users;
rewrite ^/users(/.*) $1 last;
}

The problem is that when I access "/users/index.html" the second location
matches and the rewrite rule gets applied but the "root" directive is
ignored and instead the one from the first location section is applied
resulting in the delivery of the file "/opt/nginx/html/index.html".
Am I getting something wrong about the location/root directives or is this
a problem with nginx?

Regards,
Dennis
