  location = /sitemapindex.xml
      {
          allow all;

  Please don't post on old threads, and especially not when they don't have anything to do with your issue!

  this best askin new discussion @johntang

  if category_1.xml, etc are physical location they should be caught by try, There is no need to put it through vanillia's dispatcher if they are cached files.

  If you need to use pattern matching you can do it, however I'm not getting what it is you wish to match. Are you using a plugin for your site map?

  grep is your friend.

  http://..../xml_1.xml
  /loc
  /sitemap

  loc
  http://..../xml_2.xml
  /loc
  /sitemap
  /sitemapindex
  

  But click to these xml file, Page not found is showing up.
