Why is my nginx alias not working?

Figured out a way. I'm not sure if it's the BEST, but it's certainly working right now.

Here's what I did:

        location ~ ^/phpmyadmin/(.*)$
        {
                alias /home/phpmyadmin/$1;
        }

I'm not sure but have you tried writing it this way:

location /phpmyadmin/
        {
                alias /home/phpmyadmin/;
        }

Also, what's the URI from which you are trying to access it?

As far as I understand it, you have to use the URI

/home/phpmyadmin/

and not just

/phpmyadmin/
