Blurring Existence

Somehow the pretty URLs to static pages on this s9y install stopped working (returning a 404) and I have no idea why.

It does work when I redirect the pretty URLs to the not-so-pretty URL, but somehow it doesn’t work if I let nginx rewrite it internally.

So I’m currently using this:

location / {
    index  index.php;
    rewrite ^(/pages/.*\.html)$ /index.php?$1 redirect;
    try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$uri;
}

Could this be a bug in s9y’s static page plugin where it doesn’t parse the passed URL correctly?
