It is the module which decides what to do, and whether to do
anything without any directives in the configuration, or not.
That is, check your code.

The message indicates that there were too many redirects, and
nginx decided to stop it. Most likely, your code redirects all
requests, including already redirected ones, and this is what
causes the problem.
