I am new to nginx so please be patient, if this info is available elsewhere
please tell me where.
I have 3 nginx servers. 1 is used as a reverse proxy and that is where my
question is.
I have 2 web sites running on my home network. I have configured the DNS to
refer the site names to my (fixed) home address. I have configured my home
modem/router to forward port 80 to the machine running the nginx reverse proxy.
I have made scripts in the sites-available on the reverse proxy with the names
of the sites I wish to proxy, configured thus:
wordpress1.org.conf
server {
listen 80;
server_name wordpress1.org www.wordpress1.org;
access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log;
error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log;
location / {
proxy_pass http://10.111.111.31;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
# proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Port $server_port;
}
wordpress2.com.conf
server {
listen 80;
server_name wordpress2.com www.wordpress2.com;
access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log;
error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log;
location / {
proxy_pass http://10.111.111.32;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
# proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Port $server_port;
}
I have commented out the "proxy_set_header Host $host;” because
with it I get “too many redirects”.
This seems to be working.
I want to have the configuration have a “ name not found” where it goes to the
proxy server itself and can display a web page an error or a php page defined
by the query string if there is one. I.E. if someone tries to simply access the
external IP present an error or if there is a known page that exists on the
proxy server ( I have a php page with a known name that displays phpinfo for
validating server info) display it, do not proxy. curently if I simply use the
IP it displays the server for wordpress2. ( the actual names for the sites
wordpress2 is alphebetically first ) so basically how do I make the webpages on
the proxy server the “fallback” web server ?
