Reverse proxy for a subdirectory in nginx
- by Maple
I want to set up a Reverse proxy on my VPS for my Heroku app (http://lovemaple.heroku.com)
So if I visit mysite.com/blog I can get the content in http://lovemaple.heroku.com
I followed the instructions on the Apache wiki.
location /couchdb {
rewrite /couchdb/(.*) /$1 break;
proxy_pass http://localhost:5984;
proxy_redirect off;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
}
I changed it to fit my situation:
location /blog {
rewrite /blog/(.*) /$1 break;
proxy_pass http://lovemaple.heroku.com;
proxy_redirect off;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
}
When I visit mysite.com/blog, the page show up, but js/css file cannot be gotten (404).
Their link becomes mysite.com/style.css but not mysite.com/blog/style.css.
What's wrong and how can I fix it?
