location = /pma { rewrite ^ /pma/ permanent; }
location /pma/ {
  location /pma/(.*\.php)$ {
    set $script_filename /usr/share/phpmyadmin/$1;
    # testing file existence for security.
    # sadly in this case we can't use try_files since we're testing
against actual file on disk
    # while try_files tries against uri
    if (!-f $script_filename) { return 404; }
    include fastcgi_params;
    fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $script_filename;
    fastcgi_param HTTPS $fastcgi_https;
    fastcgi_pass backend;
  }
  location ~ ^/pma(|/.*)$ {
    alias /usr/share/phpmyadmin/$1;
    index index.php;
