(Though to use patterns(7) syntax, one needs to use the 'match' 
keyword, e.g. "location match" rather than just "location". In the 
latter case, shell globbing rules are used.)

httpd location question

[Mark]

Hi,

In httpd, my web portal gives an HTTP 404 error when 'mysite.com/create' is
typed,
however 'mysite.com/create/' works.

In order to *solve* this issue, I added 2 different locations pointing to
the same cgi script, as:

location "/create" {
fastcgi socket "/var/www/run/slowcgi.sock"
root "/usr/local/lib/mailman/cgi-bin/create"
request strip 1
}

location "/create/*" {
fastcgi socket "/var/www/run/slowcgi.sock"
root "/usr/local/lib/mailman/cgi-bin/create"
request strip 1
}

I have lots of cgi and the httpd.conf would grow a lot,

Thus, wondering how to make both way (with ending '/' and without) to work
in a single location?

Is there any directive or regex for the 'location' directive,
so that both requests for '/create' and '/create/' would work?

Best wishes,
Mark.
