Hi Rakesh,

The rules for location matching are layed out here

http://wiki.codemongers.com/NginxHttpCoreModule#location

I think what you are trying to do might look like this

server {

server_name ...

include proxy.conf;

# match exactly /top.xml location = /top.xml { proxy_pass http://apache; }

# match *.xml { location ~* \.xml { proxy_pass http://jetty }

}

Cheers

Dave

Hi,

Please consider this following scenario.

I have 2 servers(1 jetty and the other is apache) with nginx as proxy servers to both.

I forward all the jsp queries to jetty and all the php queries to apache httpd and serve the static content of both the servers by nginx.

Now the problem is there is one xml file "top.xml", generated by httpd which i must send the request to httpd and also i need to send all the request to *.xml to jetty(i have asked the dev team to make sure there is no top.xml file in jetty).

Can you suggest some configuration settings to achieve this.

Right now I have tried that for top.xml go to httpd and for *.xml go to jetty, but clearly the rule with *.xml overrides the top.xml condition.

My question is how the rules in the conf file processed when it comes to proxying the request to different servers.

Thanks,

Rakesh.
