Rewrite before regex location

[Joyce Babu]

Hi Francis,

Thank you for the response.

Possibly using "location ^~ /test/" would work?

There are over 300 rewrites under 54 location blocks.

I tried using ^~ as you suggested. Now the rewrite is working correctly,
but the files are not executed. The request is returning the actual PHP
source file, not the HTML generated by executing the script.

There is a CMS engine which will intercept all unmatched requests and check
the database to see if there is an article with that URI. Some times it has
to match existing directories without index.php. If I use try_files, it
will either lead to a 403 error (if no index is specified), or would
internally redirect the request to the index file (if it is specified),
leading to 404 error. The if condition correctly handles all the
non-existing files.
