Hi Amin,
Did you get this sorted? I assume navigating to
http://amin.com.au:8080/client works as expected, because of this I
doubt it's cloudstack API issue.
We could try the following:
location /client {
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Server $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_pass http://localhost:8080/client;
}
or
location / {
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Server $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
redirect off;
proxy_pass http://localhost:8080/client;
}
If that doesn't work it might be worth reaching out to the NGinx gurus :)
