Nginx is running on port 80, and I'm using it to reverse proxy URLs with path /foo to port 3200 this way:

location /foo {
                proxy_pass http://localhost:3200;
                proxy_redirect     off;
                proxy_set_header   Host $host;
}

This works fine, but I have an application on port 3200, for which I don't want the initial /foo to be sent to. That is - when I access http://localhost/foo/bar, I want only /bar to be the path as received by the app. So I tried adding this line:

rewrite ^(.*)foo(.*)$ http://localhost:3200/$2 permanent;

This causes 302 redirect (change in URL), but I want 301. What should I do?
