I have a golang application running on port 3001.
curl http://127.0.0.1:3001 gives the correct HTML response. But I am facing issues when I am trying to do a proxy_pass via NginX.
Below is my NginX configuration. I am doing a route based location block -
upstream my-app {
server 127.0.0.1:3001;
}
server {
listen 80 default_server;
server_name localhost;
underscores_in_headers on;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
error_page 404 /404.html;
client_max_body_size 300M;
location ^~ /theapp {
proxy_redirect off;
proxy_set_header Host $http_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_pass http://my-app;
}
}
When I access http://example.com/theapp/, it downloads the my-app binary instead of forwarding the http request to my-app.
What am I doing wrong?
