how to make '127.0.0.1:1110/abcService.svc' url accessible - networking

I have a abcService.svc already created and ready to be accessed. But I want it available on a specific port in my case 1110. How do I achieve this? I have nginx and glassfish server up and running. Which of the two will be a better choice?

This config will help you:
...
server {
listen 1110;
root /path/to/abcService.svc;
.... Your directives
}
After adding this to your conf file you have to reload nginx.

Trying to set file upload limit in mup/nginx-proxy

I am running into a file upload error with files > 10M. I have followed the advice here: http://meteor-up.com/docs.html#advanced-configuration which says how to set it in the nginx proxy by setting the clientUploadLimit: '50M'
I pushed the changes using mup proxy reconfig-shared, and it told me it had restarted the proxy. It didn't work, I still get the 413 (Request Entity Too Large) error.
I checked inside the nginx-proxy docker instance, and the file /etc/nginx/conf.d/my_proxy.conf has the correct entry client_max_body_size 50M. I restarted the EC2 box to make sure, but it's still not working.
This article https://www.tecmint.com/limit-file-upload-size-in-nginx/ suggests that the setting needs to go inside a http block, like this:
By default, Nginx has a limit of 1MB on file uploads. To set file upload size, you can use the client_max_body_size directive, which is part of Nginx’s ngx_http_core_module module. This directive can be set in the http, server or location context.
http {
client_max_body_size 100M;
}
I can't see how to achieve this, as the .conf file is read only and somehow locked.
Any ideas on how to proceed?
I suppose I could try a custom nginx.conf file, but I'm not sure what should go in there, and in fact whether it will even improve the situation.
Any help is appreciated :)
I'm happy to report that I solved it... I will explain how.
I was setting the limit in the nginx reverse proxy in the mup.js file
proxy: {
domains: 'website.com,www.website.com',
shared: { clientUploadLimit: '50M' }
}
But it turns out that there is an option to set it for each independent server like this:
proxy: {
domains: 'website.com,www.website.com',
clientUploadLimit: '50M'
}
The limit was being set to 10M by default. I found it by shelling into the nginx-proxy docker image and doing a search with the command grep -R client_max_body_size /etc/nginx and it showed me all the places where it was set (for each vhost)
So I changed the mup.js file for my server, did a mup stop, and a mup setup (to re-do the settings) and then a mup deploy
Now this is speculation but have you tried going to the docker container's root shell changed the permissions to give write permission to root or your user chmod 760 /etc/nginx/nginx.conf and edit the nginx file there?

rewrite is not working as desired for redirect URL in NGINX

I have an Nginx problem and after reading a lot and trying multiple combinations, I do not find the solutions to my problem.
I have a Jira server behind a reverse proxy using Nginx. My problem is that I want to have jira.mydomain.com as the default url but when using support.mydomain.com I want it to redirect to https://jira.mydomain.com/servicedesk/customer/portal/1 because is where the Service Desk. This is what I do not make.
The result that I have now is that both jira.mydomain.com and support.mydomain.com go to the same place which probably is the normal behavior and I do not know how to configure it but if anyone can help would be very appreciated.
Thanks to all of you and the hivemind.
This is what I have right now
/etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf
upstream jira {
server jira_ip_adress:8081;
}
server {
server_name jira.mydomain.com;
server_name support.mydomain.com;
rewrite ^/support.mydomain.com https://jira.mydomain.com/servicedesk/customer/portal/1;
[...]
location / {
proxy_pass http://jira;
[...]
}
Nginx uses the server_name directive to match the domain name part of a URL. You need to use two server blocks, one for each of the domain names.
For example:
server {
server_name support.mydomain.com;
return 301 https://jira.mydomain.com/servicedesk/customer/portal/1;
}
server {
server_name jira.mydomain.com;
...
}
Obviously, if these are https services, you will need to add the appropriate listen statements to both server blocks.
Use nginx -T (uppercase T) to test the configuration file and view the entire configuration across all included files.
Many many thanks. I tried this yesterday but I had the next error when using nginx -T
nginx: [emerg] unexpected "E" in /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf:183
nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test failed
I have tried again after your help, and you spotted me in the right direction because today have been able to know what the error was telling to me and fixed.
So know, with your suggestion, is working like a charm.
Thanks a lot!

Redirect default (80) port to 5000 - Flask + NGINX + Ubuntu

I'm successfully able to run a flask app on my IP:5000 path. A simple Hello World program that shows the output on my browser.
Now, what I would like to do is to configure NGINX with a proxy so that if I access only IP which apparently runs on a default port 80, it should navigate to port 5000 and show output of my application.
In other words...
This is working : IP:5000 -> Output = Hello world
This isn't working: IP -> This site can’t be reached
The server settings that I want to add would be something like this.
server {
listen 80;
server_name MY_IP;
location / {
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:5000;
}
}
However, I'm not sure where to add this? Should it be inside http block inside /etc/nginx/nginx.conf?
Updates: Based on the answers given below, I've managed to do the following.
I did restart nginx after this. However, I'm still facing the same issue. App works on IP:5000 but does not work on IP
The configuration you have mentioned should be in a separate file, assume example.com.conf under /etc/nginx/conf.d. You can put all the configuration in /etc/nginx/nginx.conf and it'll work, it's just that for readability we create separate configuration files which would be auto included when you add it inside conf.d.
Ok, the problem is fixed. As #senaps and #Mukanahallipatna had mentioned, I created the new configuration file under conf.d.
However, the most imp step that I was missing was this part mentioned in the below link.
It is recommended that you enable the most restrictive profile that will still allow the traffic you've configured. Since we haven't configured SSL for our server yet, in this guide, we will only need to allow traffic on port 80.
Reference Link
sudo ufw allow 'Nginx HTTP'
Now, everything is working fine.
Put the working blocks in a file with any_name.conf inside the folder named /etc/nginx/conf.d and it will be loaded automatically.
You will need to restart your nginx.
update:
What are you using to serve flask? if you are using uwsgi, then you should use configurations like this:
include uwsgi_params;
uwsgi_pass unix:path_to_your.sock;
Other options for uwsgi_pass are:
uwsgi_pass localhost:9000; #normal
uwsgi_pass uwsgi://localhost:9000;
uwsgi_pass suwsgi://[2001:db8::1]:9090; #uwsgi over ssl
If you are using gunicorn to serve your flask app, then your current configs should be fine, check if your app is running and if you can get your index page or not using 5000 port, then check for other problems. your configs looks good, maybe it's a problem on flask not being run?

is my nginx config correct?

hi im trying to run my Ruby on rails app in nginx using
passenger start -e production
but it is missing the cache: [HEAD /] miss
im guessing this i dont have actualy a file in public sorry for this question this may be to easy to answer and when i route to www.tock.com it renders a live page in the internet :(
server {
listen 80;
server_name www.tock.com;
passenger_enabled on;
root /home/led/Aptana\ Studio\ 3\ Workspace/djors/public;
}
Where ever you point the webserver, nginx in this case, you need your DNS to match the location. If this is your production server, then you need DNS records to point www.tock.com to your server.
If this is your development or local machine, you probably don't want to name your server something that will overwrite the public DNS records. For example, I name all of my apps in my local nginx config like the following:
server_name my_app_name.local
Once you've given it a name, you'll need to add "my_app_name.local" to your hosts file (your local DNS records). Your hosts file should now have entries like below.
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.0.1 my_app_name.local
Restart nginx, and you can now goto my_app_name.local in your browser.
You can get rid of passenger and nginx conf all together, as it looks like you are doing this locally and if you want named links (as opposed to just running bundle exec rails server; use Pow to facilitate this. Personally, i'm a rails server guy, but ymmv.

nginx + ssi + remote uri access does not work

I have a setup where my nginx is in front with apache+PHP behind.
My PHP application cache some page in memcache which are accessed by nginx directly except some dynamic part which are build using SSI in Nginx.
The first problem I had was nginx didnt try to use memcache for ssi URI.
<!--# include virtual="/myuser" -->
So I figured that if I force it to use a full URL, it would do it.
<!--# include virtual="http://www.example.com/myuser" -->
But in logs file (both nginx and apache) I can see that a slash has been added at the beginning of the url
http ssi filter "/http://www.example.com/myuser"
In the source code of the SSI module I see a PREFIX that seems to be added, but I can really tell if I can disable it.
Anybody got this issue?
Nginx version : 0.7.62 on Ubuntu Karmic 64bits
Thanks a lot
You can configure nginx to include remote URLs despite you cannot refer them directly in SSI instructions. In site config create location with local path and named remote location that points where you want to. For example:
server {
....
location /remote {
proxy_pass #long_haul; # or use "try_files" to provide fallback
}
location #long_haul {
proxy_pass http://porno.com;
}
....
}
and in served html use include directive that refers /remote path:
<!--# include virtual="/remote/rest-of-url&and=parameters" -->
Note that you may customize URL that is passed further with variables and regexp. For example:
location ~/remote(.+) {
proxy_pass #long_haul$1?$args;
}
It has nothing about nginx, you just can't do that. SSI doesn't accept remote uri. you can only specify a local file path.
