Nginx configuration leads to endless redirect loop
- by brianthecoder
So I've looked at every sample configuration I could find and yet every time I try and view a page that requires ssl, I end up in an redirect loop. I'm running nginx/0.8.53 and passenger 3.0.2.
Here's the ssl config
server {
listen 443 default ssl;
server_name <redacted>.com www.<redacted>.com;
root /home/app/<redacted>/public;
passenger_enabled on;
rails_env production;
ssl_certificate /home/app/ssl/<redacted>.com.pem;
ssl_certificate_key /home/app/ssl/<redacted>.key;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X_FORWARDED_PROTO https;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
proxy_set_header X-Url-Scheme $scheme;
proxy_redirect off;
proxy_max_temp_file_size 0;
location /blog {
rewrite ^/blog(/.*)?$ http://blog.<redacted>.com/$1 permanent;
}
location ~* \.(js|css|jpg|jpeg|gif|png)$ {
if (-f $request_filename) {
expires max;
break;
}
}
error_page 500 502 503 504 /50x.html;
location = /50x.html {
root html;
}
}
Here's the non-ssl config
server {
listen 80;
server_name <redacted>.com www.<redacted>.com;
root /home/app/<redacted>/public;
passenger_enabled on;
rails_env production;
location /blog {
rewrite ^/blog(/.*)?$ http://blog.<redacted>.com/$1 permanent;
}
location ~* \.(js|css|jpg|jpeg|gif|png)$ {
if (-f $request_filename) {
expires max;
break;
}
}
error_page 500 502 503 504 /50x.html;
location = /50x.html {
root html;
}
}
Let me know if there's any additional info I can give to help diagnose the issue.
