Apache location but not for certain paths

Question

Is it possible to exclude certain paths from a location?

# first location
<Location /folder1>

# second location
<Location /folder1/folder2>

Locations are merged and this causes problems for my configuration.

What I want to achieve is that the first or the second Location is used to prevent merging.

Can I do this using LocationMatch?

Answer 1

Maybe this:

(taken more or less from LocationMatch to allow a main url excluding specific sub folder )

# first location
<LocationMatch ^/folder1/(?!folder2).*>

# second location
<Location /folder1/folder2>
