I would like to ask if someone could please verify my
configs :<br>

I have a Nginx server sitting in front of two Apache
servers.<br>
I'm using Nginx as a reverse caching / load balancing
solution.<br>
But what I'm trying achieve is to cache only for images,
css and Js.<br>
<br>
All in all it appears it all works.<br>
<br>
The other question I would like to ask is, does the order
of location<br>
matter?<br>

<div>Depends. For regular expression based location is does,
for prefix based locations it doesn't. See <a href="http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_core_module.html#location" target="_blank"></a><a href="http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_core_module.html#location" target="_blank">http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_core_module.html#location</a></div>

location can either be defined by a prefix string, or by a
regular expression. Regular expressions are specified with
the preceding “~*” modifier (for case-insensitive
matching), or the “~” modifier (for case-sensitive
matching). <b>To find location matching a given request,
nginx first checks locations defined using the prefix
strings (prefix locations). Among them, the location
with the longest matching prefix is selected and
remembered. Then regular expressions are checked, in the
order of their appearance in the configuration file. The
search of regular expressions terminates on the first
match, and the corresponding configuration is used. If
no match with a regular expression is found then the
configuration of the prefix location remembered earlier
is used.</b><br>

If anyone can help, it would be appreciated.<br>
