I am trying to reverse proxy my local home NAS.
What I would like to do is, now my media server listens on nas:8096, but I would like to reverse proxy it to be media.
I tried to bind it with Nginx Proxy Manager, but it doesn't seem to work:
server {
listen 80;
location media/ {
proxy_pass http://192.168.0.100:8096;
}
}
I know its a stupid try... :D
Thanks.

I'm new with nginx, but i'm trying to build a reverse proxy that could do something like this:
Whenever a request arrives to a domain name like this in my nginx reverse proxy server:
http://dn.55-32.mydomain.name/path/file.cfg
Parse the 55-32 and forward the request to an internal ip.
http://10.10.55.32/path/file.cfg
The 55-32 represent that las octects XX.XX.55.32 to the forwarded server.
Is there a way to build such a behavior?
Finally i made it wokr with this configuration:
server {
listen 443 ssl http2 default_server;
server_name ~^dn\.(?<octet1>.+)-(?<octet2>.+)\.mydomain\.com$;
location / {
set $var http://10.10.$octet1.$octet2;
proxy_pass $var;
}
}
Maybe this could be helpful for someone...

ttI am adding an nginx reverse proxy in front of my existing nextcloudpi server in order to be able to route traffic to different servers in my network depending to the domain that is used. Currently the nextcloudpi server is the only one running, so all traffic is directly routed to it.
The server is only accessible via https and letsencrypt handles the certifactes on the nextcloudpi server.
In order to route traffic from my reverse proxy to the nextcloudpi server via https, I have set up the default.conf file to look like this:
server {
listen 443;
listen [::]:443;
server_name <my-public-url>;
location / {
proxy_pass https://<hostname-of-my-nextcloudpi-server>;
}
}
Unfortunately that doesn't work. Firefox returns SSL_ERROR_RX_RECORD_TOO_LONG and Chrome ERR_SSL_PROTOCOL_ERROR
I have also not seen anywhere where traffic is proxied to a https location. I am aware that in my internal network I can and should just route to the target location on port 80 but since the server is already set up to use https I want to keep it that way.
Thanks for your help
I have done some resarch for this matter and there are some unaswered question regarding my issue, however I managed to solve half of what is needed (thanks to people on the site).
Scenerio:
I have Nginx as a reverse proxy in internal corporate network. I need to pass traffic to Internet behind corporate proxy.
Half of the solution:
To achive this, following works fine:
server {
listen 80;
server_name myhost.com;
location / {
proxy_set_header Host google.com;
proxy_pass http://corporateproxy:9999/;
}
}
However, above solution does not use SSL between corporate proxy and google.com. Do you have any idea how to add SSL to this?
I have tried adding protocol or port to header but it is not working this way.
I cannot modify anything on the corporate proxy. It should work like this: the URL being accessed is with https it will be redirected to https; http to http. Unfortunatelly header that contains only dns name is treated as http request.
Unfortunatelly the simplest solution does not work because nginx does not respect http_proxy settings on RedHat Machine:
server {
listen 80;
server_name myhost.com;
location / {
proxy_pass https://google.com/;
}
}
Any help will be highly appreciated.
I have several websites hosted on the same sever. To simplify I have just 2 (http-only.com and https.com) and using nginx to handle requests.
One has SSL enabled. And another doesn't. I noticed links like this in Google Search Console http-only.com/https_server_path and when accessing an http-only.com server with https protocol I get requests served by an https.com server instead.
https.com:
server {
listen 443 ssl;
server_name https.com;
ssl on;
}
only-http.com:
server {
listen 80;
server_name only-http.com;
}
I think I should define something like a default ssl server to handle ssl for http.com, but don't know how to do it properly. I guess nginx should redirect https request to an http url if corresponding server doesn't handle https. Or maybe there is a better solution?
I'm used to the typical lamp web hosting environment where you just click a few buttons in cpanel and your domain gets zoned and mapped to a folder within htdocs. I've been using node.js a lot and it doesn't seem as simple to do the same thing. If I had multiple node apps and I wanted to route domain1.com:80 and domain2.com:80 each to its own node app and port, how do I go about doing that? where do I start?
This is typically done with nginx. Nginx is a reverse proxy, a piece of software you put infront node.js.
server {
listen 80;
server_name www.domain1.com;
root /var/www/domain1;
location / {
proxy_pass http://localhost:1337; # this is where your node.js app_domain1 is listening
}
}
server {
listen 80;
server_name www.domain2.com;
root /var/www/domain2;
location / {
proxy_pass http://localhost:1338; # this is where your node.js app_domain2 is listening
}
}
From here: Nginx Different Domains on Same IP
I dont recomend apache to do these, nginx fits better with nodejs.
You can run the apps for example at the port 3000 and 3001,
then proxy it to mydomain1:80, and mydomain2:80.
To get mydomain1 and mydomain2 unther the port 80, these is all about DNS not apache.
Theres no way to run apache/nginx and your node httpserver on the same port. ull get a error.
p.s. Im not sure in u can do these #tipical lamp webhost
hope it helps
You can setup virtual domains in Node if you're using Express.
The code you would use to start your server with would look something like this.
var sys = require('sys'),
express = require('express');
var app = express.createServer();
app.configure(function() {
app.use(express.vhost('subdomain1.local', require('./subdomain1/app').app));
app.use(express.vhost('subdomain2.local', require('./subdomain2/app').app));
app.listen(3000);
});
Then you would export app in each subdomain.
var app = express.createServer();
exports.app = app;
Here's a post to read more about vhost in Express.js.
