Hello all,
I run nginx on port 80 in front of apache with mod_backhand on port
81 on the same machine, which does the load balancing across
backend apache servers.
Our application makes a redirect on a few rarely visited places and
there apache generates a redirect in the form of http://domain:81/
place/to/go. Thats get fed to the client, which sees a "connection
refused" because of the closed 81 port.
What is the right way to fix this?
Obviously I need to rewrite that :81 somewhere into :80 or throw it
away alltogether. I just don't understand the http proxying fully
enough to see the solution. I think I either need some
RewriteEngine magic on apache side or some proper rewrite statement
on nginx side.
You should be making the redirect to port 80
http://domain:81/place/to/go
becomes
http://domain/place/to/go
and let nginx handle the proxying to port 81
or
open up port81 requests to ips other than localhost.
port 81 is technically reserved in IANA for something else ( as is
port 82, though neither are still used ). you should really be
running that on port 8000 , 8001, 8080, 8081 , etc
