How to preserve request url with nginx proxy_pass
Solution 1:
I think the proxy_set_header
directive could help:
location / {
proxy_pass http://my_app_upstream;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
# ...
}
Solution 2:
Just proxy_set_header Host $host miss port for my case. Solved by:
location / {
proxy_pass http://BACKENDIP/;
include /etc/nginx/proxy.conf;
}
and then in the proxy.conf
proxy_redirect off;
proxy_set_header Host $host:$server_port;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
Solution 3:
Note to other people finding this: The heart of the solution to make nginx not manipulate the URL, is to remove the slash at the end of the Copy: proxy_pass directive. http://my_app_upstream vs http://my_app_upstream/ – Hugo Josefson
I found this above in the comments but I think it really should be an answer.
Solution 4:
In case something modifies the location that you're trying to serve, e.g. try_files
, this preserves the request for the back-end:
location / {
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8080$request_uri;
}
