Hi all,

I just upgraded to nginx-0.8.13 and found that there is a change in alias routing, making part of my website does not work any more.

My configuration

location ~ /gostats($|/.*) {
autoindex on;
access_log off;
alias /home/web/usage/site$1;
index index.html;

# if the requested file exists, return it immediately
if (-f $request_filename) {
break;
}
}

It works in 0.8.9, 0.8.10 but not in 0.8.13

Here is the error log when I access to http://mydomain.com/gostats

2009/09/02 13:21:25 6481#0: *77052 open() "/home/web/usage/site/index.htmlhtml" failed (2: No such file or directory), client: 117.1.253.209, server: mydomain.com, request: "GET /gostats/ HTTP/1.1", host: "mydomain.com"

The problem is there is redundant "html" appended to the static HTML file, making /home/web/usage/site/index.html into /home/web/usage/site/index.htmlhtml

Is is a bug?
