Not that I would ever claim my configs are a good tutorial, but I use nginx
as a frontend to some of my django apps running on apache. I included one of
my server configs if it might help, but I don't know of any real tutorials
off hand.
server {
listen xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:80;
server_name foo.com;
access_log /var/log/nginx/foo.access_log main;
error_log /var/log/nginx/foo.error_log info;
root /home/foo/html;
# serve static files
location ~ ^/(js|img|swf|css|pdf)/ {
root /home/foo/media;
}
location ~ ^/site_media/ {
rewrite ^/site_media/(.*)$ /$1 permanent;
}
location /favicon.ico {
return 204;
}
location /robots.txt {
root /home/foo/html;
}
# proxy web app
location / {
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8085;
}
}
