Newbie questions about nginx (moving from apache)

[pk899]

Because this forum does not allow editing, here's my edit: 

Thanks.

So with this setup, this works:

http://mydomain.com:81/static/test.gif

But when I try this:

http://mydomain.com:81/     (main site) 

It **physically** redirects to http://mydomain.com.

How can I avoid this?
