Hide port number in URL odoo? - nginx

Question

I need to hind port number from url. i am running odoo instance using --db-filter='^%d#', mydomain.com:8069 is works fine but mydomain.com is getting page not found. I have installed nginx and edited /etc/nginx/nginx.conf as below.
/etc/nginx/nginx.conf
#user nobody;
worker_processes 1;
events {
worker_connections 1024;
}
http {
include mime.types;
# anything written in /opt/nginx/conf/mime.types is interpreted as if written inside the http { } block
default_type application/octet-stream;
#
#log_format main '$remote_addr - $remote_user [$time_local] "$request" '
# '$status $body_bytes_sent "$http_referer" '
# '"$http_user_agent" "$http_x_forwarded_for"';
#access_log logs/access.log main;
sendfile on;
keepalive_timeout 65;
server {
# You would want to make a separate file with its own server block for each virtual domain
# on your server and then include them.
listen 8069;
listen 192.168.1.111:8080;
listen 192.168.1.111;
#tells Nginx the hostname and the TCP port where it should listen for HTTP connections.
# listen 80; is equivalent to listen *:80;
#server_name localhost;
server_name mydomain.com;
server_name www.mydomain.com;
# lets you doname-based virtual hosting
#charset koi8-r;
#access_log logs/host.access.log main;
location / {
#The location setting lets you configure how nginx responds to requests for resources within the server.
root html;
index index.html index.htm;
}
#error_page 404 /404.html;
# redirect server error pages to the static page /50x.html
#
error_page 500 502 503 504 /50x.html;
location = /50x.html {
root html;
}
}
}
How can i do that? suggest any solutions..

Try the following server configuration. You can put it in a separate file and include it in the main nginx.conf if you like.
upstream odoo {
server 127.0.0.1:8080; # Or wherever your Odoo service is listening
}
server {
server_name mydomain.com;
listen 0.0.0.0:80;
root /var/www/html/odoo/;
index index.php index.html index.htm;
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ #odoo;
}
location #odoo {
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_pass http://odoo;
}
}
In short, this defines an upstream server odoo for your odoo service. When a request is received (say mydomain.com/path/to/resource), nginx will try to process it by delivering the corresponding resource it is supposed to serve from the root dir. If that fails, it will retry, appending a slash to it. If that fails as well, it will send the path to the upstream server (odoo) for processing.
