I would like to create a 301 redirect on nginx to do this:

*.example.gr/en/* => http://www.example.gr/el/

I have tried to do:

server
listen 80;
server_name ~^.example.gr/en/*;
return 301 http://www.example.gr/el/;

But I cannot find the proper wildcard regex to add to the server_name at the server blocks as with the "/en" I get a suspicious symbols warning

nginx redirect

  You need to create a location /en and then in that location redirect to new host... you cant create server nema like domain.com/something, you only can create server_name domain.com and then you need to create a location /someting and working in that location for redirects etc.. check here: nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_rewrite_module.html

  Post your complete nginx configuration, a proper configuration cannot be written without seeing the complete configuration.

You won't match URIs in the server_name directive as it's ... for server names.

server 

 listen 80;
 server_name *.example.gr;

 location /en 
 return 301 http://www.example.gr/el/;
 




server 

 listen 80;
 server_name www.example.gr;

 location /el 
 # Your stuff
 

For the record, Nginx server name choosing order is :

1. Exact name


2. Longest name with a leading wildcard


3. Longest name with a trailing wildcard


4. First matching regular expression
