The debug log (http://nginx.org/en/docs/debugging_log.html) holds lots
of information.

For testing, a limited version like

events {
debug_connection 127.0.0.12;
}

means that it will probably only log for the one specific request you
make using curl. Make one request, see the log, pick out the bits that
say which location{} was chosen.

Or adding something like

return 200 "Location No. 9\n";

to each location{} block may be a short-term thing to confirm that you
configured nginx the way you wanted to configure nginx.
