Hi,
I used nginx and upstream module for load balancing with the following config
upstream lb {
server 127.0.0.1:8080;
server 127.0.0.1:8081;
}
server {
listen 88;
server_name localhost;
location /cas/ {
proxy_pass http://lb;
proxy_redirect off;
proxy_connect_timeout 2;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
}
}
the problem is the "location /context/" have to match to the context of backend server so when i request localhost/context/index.html then nginx routes it to 127.0.0.1:8080/context/index.html or 127.0.0.1:8080/context/index.html.
Is it possible to have difference backend context and nginx location for example with "location /" nginx will routes the request to 127.0.0.1:8080/context/index.html or 127.0.0.1:8080/context/index.html
Thank you.
