When a request comes to nginx, first it decides which server{} you
have configured to handle the request; then it decides which location{}
in that server{} you have configured to handle the request (more or less).

In this case, the request is being handled by looking at the filesystem;
that means that it is handled in a location{} that does not have a
proxy_pass or other similar handler defined.

If you have shown the complete server{} block, then this is not the
server{} block that the running nginx is using to handle this request.

Maybe there is another location{} in the same server{} block? Or maybe
there is another server{} in the same configuration? Or maybe the running
nginx is using a different configuration?


Some variant of "ps" should show your running nginx and any "-c" argument
it has; if you copy that much and add "-T", then find the "server" and
"listen" lines, it might help identify which server{} block is actually
configured to be used for this request.

Something like

/usr/local/sbin/nginx -c /etc/nginx.conf -T | grep -e 'server\|listen'

where the first three words match whatever your system is doing, will
probably be helpful.

(Do read the output, and edit any information you consider private,
before pasting into email.)

Yes, there is -- root (http://nginx.org/r/root).

But that is not the problem here.
