nginx rewrites (mostly working, need a bit of help tho)

[Michael.Terence]

The announcements and downloads rewrites are working as intended, but the knowledgebase rewrites are messed up. Here's what's happening and links to the live site.

This URL should trip the first knowledgebase rewrite rule: https://my.uncorrupted.net/knowledgebase/1/DNS-Explained.html

Instead, it's hitting the second rule and using $1 as the catid and this is actually the page being displayed: https://my.uncorrupted.net/knowledgebase/1/Domain-Names

 

I've tried replacing last; with break; on the first rule, but that breaks all the rules

 

location /  {
                       root   /path/to/public_html/;
                       index  index.html index.php; 
                           rewrite ^/announcements/([0-9]+)/[a-z0-9_-]+\.html$ /./announcements.php?id=$1 last;
                           rewrite ^/announcements$ /./announcements.php last;

                           rewrite ^/downloads/([0-9]+)/([^/]*)$ /./downloads.php?action=displaycat&catid=$1 last;
                           rewrite ^/downloads$ /./downloads.php last;

                           rewrite ^/knowledgebase/([0-9]+)/[a-z0-9_-]+\.html$ /./knowledgebase.php?action=displayarticle&id=$1 last;
                           rewrite ^/knowledgebase/([0-9]+)/([^/]*)$ /./knowledgebase.php?action=displaycat&catid=$1 last;
                           rewrite ^/knowledgebase$ /./knowledgebase.php last;


              }
