There could be several reasons why nginx is unable to locate static files when passed with a subdirectory, including:

1. Incorrect file path: The file path provided to nginx may be incorrect or incomplete, causing it to look in the wrong directory or not find the file at all.

2. Incorrect server configuration: The server configuration may be incorrect or incomplete, causing nginx to not properly recognize the subdirectory or handle requests for static files within it.

3. Permission issues: Nginx may not have the necessary permissions to access the files in the subdirectory, resulting in it being unable to locate the static files.

4. Caching issues: If caching is enabled on the server, nginx may be serving cached versions of the static files instead of the updated versions stored in the subdirectory.
