How to setup apache to catch a proxy_pass from nginx?
- by Paté
I have a working apache vhost such as
<VirtualHost localhost:10006>
DocumentRoot "/home/pate/***/git/kohana_site/public/site/"
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost *:10006>
ServerName api.*
DocumentRoot "/home/pate/***/git/kohana_site/public/api/"
LogLevel debug
</VirtualHost>
If i point to localhost:10006 I get my website and api.localhost:10006 I get my api.
Then I have haproxy setup on top of that, that runs on port 10010 and both localhost:10010 and api.localhost:10010 have the expected behaviour.
Now I have nginx setup on port 80 with this configuration.
server {
listen 10000;
server_name api.*;
location / {
proxy_pass http://legacy_server;
}
}
server {
listen 10000 default;
server_name _;
location /nginx_status {
stub_status on;
access_log off;
}
# images are accessed via the CDN over HTTP (not https)
location /n/image {
proxy_pass http://image_caching_server;
}
location / {
return 301 https://$host:10014$request_uri;
}
}
upstream legacy_server {
server localhost:10010 fail_timeout=0;
}
the problem is that apache does not recognize the vhost properly and redirects api.localhost to the website instead of the api.
I tried playing with set_proxy_header Host $host but it doesn't seem to do anything.
