NGINX: Difference Between ~ and ~* Tildes
The difference is that ~
is case-sensitive while ~*
is not case-sensitive.
In the example below, the path /admin/
would match while /Admin/
would not:
location ~ ^/admin/$ {
return 301 https://$host/;
}
In this example, both /admin
and /Admin/
would match and be redirected:
location ~* ^/admin/$ {
return 301 https://$host/;
}
