After an upgrade to 1.8.1 our rewrites (alias+regexp+try_files) stopped working.

  Related to this? *) Bugfix: the "try_files" directive inside a nested location given by a regular expression worked incorrectly if the "alias" directive was used in the outer location. from: http://nginx.org/en/CHANGES-1.8 http://nginx.org/en/CHANGES-1.8

    Yes, probably related. I reported it here: https://forum.nginx.org/read.php?11,264181 https://forum.nginx.org/read.php?11,264181

      From my read of the docs, try_files expands aliases, so the alias directives in your location blocks are unnecessary, causing nginx to look for /home/mysite/www/js/js/whatever.js

        You're right, thank you. The aliases are completely useless. It's just strange to introduce such a change in a "stable" release.
