How to use ngnix proxy_pass with URI? - server-side

Question

My goal is redirect one domain to another using ngnix:
http://abc.mydomain1.com -> http://mydomain2.com:8080/test1
I tried the following:
server {
listen 80;
server_name abc.mydomain1.com;
access_log off;
location / {
proxy_pass http://mydomain2.com:8080/test1/;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
port_in_redirect off;
proxy_connect_timeout 300;
}
# redirect server error pages to the static page /50x.html
#
error_page 500 502 503 504 /50x.html;
location = /50x.html {
root /usr/share/nginx/html;
} }
It works with the first page index.html however this page needs to load javascripts and css resources and viewing the source code I notice that all links are generated like this:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/test1/css/bootstrap.min.css"/>
How to avoid contextPath "test1"? I think something is missing in the header but I don't know what :(
Thanks in advance for your help

Answer 1

I think my approach was incorrect because the server http://mydomain2.com:8080/test1/ will generate the links based in the context in this case "test1". Therefore ngnix is working good.
I resolved the problem creating virtual host in http://mydomain2.com:8080 for "test1"
<Host name="abc.mydomain1.com" appBase="abc.mydomain1.com"
unpackWARs="true" autoDeploy="true"></Host>
and I changed my redirection to (removing test1):
server {
listen 80;
server_name abc.mydomain1.com;
access_log off;
location / {
proxy_pass http://mydomain2.com:8080/;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
port_in_redirect off;
proxy_connect_timeout 300;
}
# redirect server error pages to the static page /50x.html
#
error_page 500 502 503 504 /50x.html;
location = /50x.html {
root /usr/share/nginx/html;
} }
