NGINX redirection issue (2 replies)

Hello All,

I am facing some issue regarding nginx redirection. I want to remove .html extension from all the html pages and all the index.html pages. For example

1.
http://www.aaa.com/bbb/ccc.html should show the content of http://www.aaa.com/bbb/ccc.html but the URL should show http://www.aaa.com/bbb/ccc

2. http://www.aaa.com/index.html should show the content of http://www.aaa.com/index.html but the URL should show http://www.aaa.com.

There are few rewrites already there which are given below

1. Whenever you try to access the http://www.aaa.com site, it will redirect to http://www.aaa.com/aaa/bbb/ccc/ddd/index.html.
http://www.aaa.com -----> http://www.aaa.com/aaa/bbb/ccc/ddd/index.html.
2. All directory lookups to 'index.html'
rewrite ^(.*)/$ $1/index.html permanent;
3. All open strings to index.html
rewrite ^(.*)/([^\.\?/]+)$ $1/$2/index.html permanent;

Now whenever I try to implement the change, the site went into a redirect loop and gives following error in the error log.

2014/08/05 14:48:03 [error] 10392#0: *750 rewrite or internal redirection cycle while internally redirecting to "/index.html", client: 1.1.1.1, server: www.aaa.com, request: "GET /aaa/ccc HTTP/1.1", host: "www.aaa.com"

Please suggest how to solve the issue
