Nginx Base Auth - django

Question

I work with Django and Nginx
I added the following entry to my config to restrict access to example.com/admin/
The function asks for a password, and everything works, but after that, as I get a 404 Not Found error from Nginx
Full config
upstream rates_core_server {
server unix:/webapps/example.com_app/example.com/run/gunicorn.sock fail_timeout=0;
}
server {
listen 80;
server_name example.com www.example.com;
client_max_body_size 4G;
access_log /webapps/example.com_app/logs/nginx-access.log;
error_log /webapps/example.com_app/logs/nginx-error.log;
location /admin/ {
auth_basic "Restricted Content";
auth_basic_user_file /etc/nginx/.htpasswd;
}
location /static/ {
alias /webapps/example.com_app/example.com/static/;
client_max_body_size 100M;
}
location /media/ {
alias /webapps/example.com_app/example.com/static/media/;
client_max_body_size 100M;
}
location / {
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_redirect off;
if (!-f $request_filename) {
proxy_pass http://example.com_server;
break;
}
}
# Error pages
error_page 500 502 503 504 /500.html;
location = /500.html {
root /webapps/example.com_app/example.com/static/;
}
}
I do not understand what the problem is

With the current config, nginx does not know where to look for or redirect to for admin block. Can you include proxy_pass settings in your admin block as well, like this:
location /admin/ {
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_redirect off;
if (!-f $request_filename) {
proxy_pass http://example.com_server;
break;
}
auth_basic "Restricted Content";
auth_basic_user_file /etc/nginx/.htpasswd;
}
