HI guys. I am trying to make something to work in nginx but I have no luck. I posted in StackOverflow, and no answer. I wish any of you can help me. I paste the SO question here as well:
I am using nginx and I need a proxy to redirect some service. From my application, I should be able to do a POST, for example, to this URL: http://localhost:8776/specialService/aserverthatlistens.com/serviceToCall. And I need to rewrite it like this: https://aserverthatlistens.com/serviceToCall (notice that this URL is HTTPS, not HTTP). I know I can use rewrite but I don't know how to use proxy_pass also, because the url of the proxy_pass should be what I rewrote... Notice that I cannot know in advance what is the final url (aserverthatlistens.com in this example), so I always need to get it form the URL. I could send it as parameter if that help instead of being part of the URL. So far my server configuration looks like this: server { listen 8776; server_name localhost; access_log /var/log/nginx/tunnel.log; error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log info; location ~ ^/someService(/.*)$ { proxy_pass https://$1; } } Posted at Nginx Forum: http://forum.nginx.org/read.php?2,244782,244782#msg-244782 _______________________________________________ nginx mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.nginx.org/mailman/listinfo/nginx
