I am trying to use nginx as a reverse proxy, but I couldn't find anything on how to forward the x-access-token (JWT) header.
The reverse proxy works fine, and using http://localhost/app gives me the api. However, when I try to access anything requiring a token, ex. http://localhost/app/api/products I get Cannot GET //api/products.
In the documentation, it says that the default is proxy_pass_request_headers on; but the problem doesn't seem to be there.
nginx.conf
events {}
http {
server {
listen 8000;
location /app {
proxy_pass 'http://localhost:3000/';
}
}
}

I'm trying to use Nginx as a proxy server which should redirect all requests to different domains based on the URI parameters.
Say we have two servers org1-domain.com and org2-domain.com. The incoming request is mynginxproxy.com/api/org2/users. In this case, Nginx should proxy the request to the org2-domain.com.
Here's my Nginx config file:
user nginx;
worker_processes 1;
events {
worker_connections 10240;
}
http {
server {
listen 8080 ssl;
server_name nginx-proxy;
location ^/\w*/(.*)/.*$ {
proxy_pass https://$1-domain.com:8080;
}
}
}
So I'm using a regex in the location directive in order to get org parameter from the URI and use it in the proxy_pass directive. But I'm always getting this error:
host not found in upstream "-domain.com" in /etc/nginx/nginx.conf:15
I also tried other options for regex in the location directive:
location ~ ^/\w*/\w*/(.*)/(.*)$ {
location ~* /(.*)$ {
location ~* /(.*)$ {
But in all those cases I'm always getting the same host not found error.
I also tried to use rewrite rules instead of proxy_pass but in this case, Nginx just returns me a 302 redirect response which is not suitable for my case.
BTW proxy_pass without regex works fine if I'm redirecting directly to the org2-domain.com:
location / {
proxy_pass https://org2-domain.com:8080;
}
But I need somehow to extract org from the URI and construct the DNS name for proxy_pass directive.
I'm using nginx for web service proxy. I have rest service as below and i want to proxy my domain
https://www.example.com/myRestservice. Service has some method like this;
http://1.1.1.1:123/api/work/method1
http://1.1.1.1:123/api/work/method2
*By the way services publish on two server as below in nginx.conf
As result i want to access to methods of service like "https://www.example.com/Restservice/api/work/method1"..
When i try to use rewrite in nginx as below, i can access service.
But in this time Post method's request body is emty. I can see service logs.
In my nginx.config
upstream RestService {
server 1.1.1.1:123;
server 1.1.1.2:123;
}
server {
listen 443 ssl;
server name https://www.example.com;
location ~ ^/Restservice/ {
add_header Access-Control-Allow-Origin *;
rewrite ^/Restservice/(.*) /$1 break;
proxy_pass http://Restservice/;
proxy_http_version 1.1;
}
}
Bye the way i try to location part like this, result is same.
location /Restservice {
proxy_pass http://Restservice/;
}
Normally I can access soap service with config from https link.
Is it about http redirection to https ?
In nginx access log;
status : 500
request: POST /Restservice/api/work/method1 HTTP/1.1
I find the reason. Because of the endcoding.
After choosing endcoding type 'UTF-8', I could see request body.
i am trying to use nginx for my hosted website on Azure using location. but even if i configure Nginx for google, i get a 404.
location /master
{
proxy_pass http://www.google.com;
}
See this thread for url details on proxy_pass
Nginx proxy_pass only works partially
Your config
location /master
{
proxy_pass http://www.google.com;
}
Send /master also as the part of the url. Which means you are trying to go to http://www.google.com/master. So this won't work as it is a 404. But if you add trailing / to both your locations
location /master/
{
proxy_pass http://www.google.com/;
}
The /master will not be sent as the request url. Also this would just work for a brief moment as you will get a 301 to https://www.google.com. So better is to use proxy_pass https://www.google.com/;
nginx server serves http://server1.com, http://server2.com and http://server3.com.
nginx upstreams request process to some ruby code.
server1.com, server2.com and server3.com are actually some static files stored on amazon s3.
I want to do next: find bucket name for 'server1' host, put in db some logs and notify nginx to stream from amazon.
Maybe via setting in ruby code header with url to amazon s3 bucket and using this url later by nginx.
The flow: browser -> nginx -> ruby -> nginx -> amazon_s3 -> browser
I found how i can do this on error:
http {
server {
listen 12345; #Port that my custom app was assigned
server_name mydomain.com;
location / {
proxy_intercept_errors on;
error_page 400 403 502 503 504 = #fallback;
proxy_pass http://the_old_site_domain.com;
}
location #fallback {
proxy_pass http://myfallback.domain.com;
}
}
}
But is there a way to do something similar based on header appereance?
Thanks!
UPD
This is how i can test my header:
if ($http_x_custom_header) {
....
}
If set nginx should do some internal redirect, right?
But how it can be invoked after ruby code?
There is special headers called X-Accel-....
You need X-Accel-Redirect.
Having trouble figuring this out.
I have nginx running on home.domain.com.
Within my home network, I have multiple web services that I'd like to access externally through a reverse proxy. No SSL for now, but I'll add that later. I need to set up a reverse proxy on subdirectories of home.domain.com/app{1-3} as I only have a valid cert for home.domain.com.
My current configuration:
server {
listen 80 default;
keepalive_timeout 120;
server_name home.domain.com;
location /app1/ {
proxy_pass http://internalIP1:8081/;
}
location /app2/ {
proxy_pass http://internalIP2:5000/;
}
}
When I try to access home.domain.com/app1, it should redirect to home.domain.com/app1/login/?next=%2F, but instead goes to home.domain.com/login/?next=%2F. This obviously throws a 404, as it's not available on the nginx server.
Thoughts? Suggestions?
