Hello,

I wanted to rewrite this url

rss.xml?type=popular&cid=8
to
/cache/rss/popular_8.xml

so I wrote

location ~* \.(jpg|jpeg|gif|css|png|js|ico|xml)$ {
root /home/site/public_html;
access_log off;
expires 30d;

rewrite ^rss\.xml?type=popular&cid=(.*)$ /cache/rss/popular_8.xml break;
}

But it doesn't work :/
Can anyone help me out with this ? let me know what I'm doing wrong
