I have implemented load balancer using nginx as below:
upstream lb_units { server 127.0.0.1:88 weight=7 max_fails=3 fail_timeout=30s; # Reverse proxy to BES1 server 10.200.200.107 weight=1 max_fails=3 fail_timeout=30s; # Reverse proxy to BES2 server 10.200.200.94 weight=1 max_fails=3 fail_timeout=30s; # Reverse proxy to BES2 } server { listen 80; server_name mysite.com; location / { proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for; proxy_set_header Host $host; proxy_pass http://lb_units; proxy_redirect off; } } #########FINALLY THE REAL SITE############## server { listen 88 backlog=128 default_server; rewrite ^/en/businesses$ /en/business permanent; location / { proxy_redirect off; }
now whenever i try to browse /en/businesses page, it redirects me to port 88 (ie.: http://mysite.com:88/en/business) How can i force nginx to keep on port 80 when it runs the rewrite rule (ie. to make rewrite to http://mysite.com/en/business)?
