It is.  The location prefix doesn't start with "/", so it won't 
match any valid URI.  You have to use "location /calendar/" 
instead to match requests to "/calendar/...".

And you probably want to use "root html;" instead (or just comment 
it out to use the server's one), unless your files are in <prefix> 
+ "html/calendar/calendar" directory.

See http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/request_processing.html for some 
basic explanation on how nginx processes requests, and 
the "location" and "root" directives documentation for additional 
details:

http://nginx.org/r/location
http://nginx.org/r/root

Beginner's guide (http://nginx.org/en/docs/beginners_guide.html) 
might be also helpful.

Hope this helps.
