1. server root is /data0/www/abc.

2. location /blog/ has root redefined into /data0/www, so 
"/blog/info.txt" will be searched in file "/data0/www/blog/info.txt".

Just a side note: did you mean "~ \.php$"?  Prefix ".*" 
meaningless as it matches everything, and "?" looks strange since 
you probably don't want ".ph" files to be passed to php.

3. location ~ \.php$ has no root explicitly defined, and therefore 
uses one inherited from server, i.e. "/data0/www/abc".  So 
"/blog/index.php" will be mapped into 
"/data0/www/abc/blog/index.php".

Note: resulting file names in 2 and 3 are very different.  If you 
want them to be in the same directory - you probably want to 
define identical roots for both locations (i.e. define correct 
one in server and don't redefine in locations).
