The mistake is putting a server block inside a server block, you should close the main server block then open a new one for the sub domains server { server_name example.com; # the rest of the config } server { server_name sub1.example.com; # sub1 config } server { server_name sub2.example.com; # sub2 config }
Just to add another approach, you can use a separate file for each virtual domain or site you’re hosting. You can use a copy of default as a starting point for each one and customize for each site. Then create symlinks in sites-enabled. In this way you can take sites up and down just by … Read more
For normal production (on a server), use the default daemon on; directive so the Nginx server will start in the background. In this way Nginx and other services are running and talking to each other. One server runs many services. For Docker containers (or for debugging), the daemon off; directive tells Nginx to stay in … Read more
Finally it looks like we have good way to do this with vanilla nginx without any modules. Just define: log_format json_combined escape=json ‘{‘ ‘”time_local”:”$time_local”,’ ‘”remote_addr”:”$remote_addr”,’ ‘”remote_user”:”$remote_user”,’ ‘”request”:”$request”,’ ‘”status”: “$status”,’ ‘”body_bytes_sent”:”$body_bytes_sent”,’ ‘”request_time”:”$request_time”,’ ‘”http_referrer”:”$http_referer”,’ ‘”http_user_agent”:”$http_user_agent”‘ ‘}’; Note that escape=json was added in nginx 1.11.8. http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_log_module.html#log_format
I had this same problem, the solution was that I had not symlinked my siteconf file correctly. Try running vim /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/mysite.com—can you get to it? I was getting “Permission Denied.” If not run: rm /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/mysite.com ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/mysite.com /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/mysite.com
It seems that your nginx hasn’t been installed correctly. Pay attention to the output of the installation commands: sudo apt-get install nginx To check the nginx version, you can use this command: $ nginx -v nginx version: nginx/0.8.54 $ nginx -V nginx version: nginx/0.8.54 TLS SNI support enabled configure arguments: –conf-path=/etc/nginx/nginx.conf –error-log-path=/var/log/nginx/error.log –http-client-body-temp-path=/var/lib/nginx/body –http-fastcgi-temp-path=/var/lib/nginx/fastcgi –http-log-path=/var/log/nginx/access.log … Read more
Try adding the $host variable in log_format: log_format main ‘$http_x_forwarded_for – $remote_user [$time_local] “$host” “$request” ‘ ‘$status $body_bytes_sent “$http_referer” ‘ ‘”$http_user_agent” $request_time’; http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpCoreModule#.24host: $host This variable is equal to line Host in the header of request or name of the server processing the request if the Host header is not available. This variable may have … Read more
location /test/ { return 404; }
If you want to pass the variable to your proxy backend, you have to set it with the proxy module. location / { proxy_pass http://example.com; proxy_set_header Host example.com; proxy_set_header HTTP_Country-Code $geoip_country_code; proxy_pass_request_headers on; } And now it’s passed to the proxy backend.
