proxy pass domain FROM default apache port 80 TO nginx on another port
- by user10580
Im still learning server things so hope the title is descriptive enough.
Basically i have sub.domain.com that i want to run on nginx at port 8090.
I want to leave apache alone and have it catch all default traffic at port 80.
so i am trying something with a virtual name host to proxy pass to sub.domain.com:8090, nothing working yet and go no idea what the right syntax could be.
any ideas? most of what i found was to pass TO apache FROM nginx, but i want to the do the opposite.
LoadModule proxy_module modules/mod_proxy.so
LoadModule proxy_http_module modules/mod_proxy_http.so
<VirtualHost sub.domain.com:80>
ProxyPreserveHost On
ProxyRequests Off
ServerName sub.domain.com
DocumentRoot /home/app/public
ServerAlias sub.domain.com
proxyPass / http://appname:8090/ (also tried localhost and sub.domain.com)
ProxyPassReverse / http://appname:8090/
</VirtualHost>
when i do this i get
[warn] module proxy_module is already loaded, skippin
[warn] module proxy_http_module is already loaded, skipping
[error] (EAI 2)Name or service not known: Could not resolve host name sub.domain.com -- ignoring!
and yes, the app is working (i have it running on port 80 with another subdomain) and it works at sub.domain.com:8090
