Try fiddling around with the regex match. Maybe ^(.*)$ It has been a long time since I have used a configuration like this.

That is the trailing slash problem. Detail: if url for folder not include the trailing slash "/" it will be redirect to the localhost automatically. I found many post about that problem, but no luck. Could you please figure it out? Example: I have domain : example.com with folder images If user enters "http://example.com/images/", it works well. But if user enter: "http://example.com/images", the site get redirected to his/her IP address automatically. I do not know the reason why and how to fix it. If you can do me a favour, thank you very much in advance. I try to use rewrite in nginx like rewrite ^([^.]*[^/])$ $1/ permanent; or use: server_name_in_redirect off; Nothing works at all. Hello,
Your configuration works perfectly except from one thing. That is the trailing slash problem.
Detail: if url for folder not include the trailing slash “/” it will be redirect to the localhost automatically.
I found many post about that problem, but no luck.
Could you please figure it out?

Example: I have domain : example.com with folder images
If user enters “http://example.com/images/”, it works well.
But if user enter: “http://example.com/images”, the site get redirected to his/her IP address automatically. I do not know the reason why and how to fix it.
If you can do me a favour, thank you very much in advance.

I try to use rewrite in nginx like
rewrite ^([^.]*[^/])$ $1/ permanent;
or use:
server_name_in_redirect off;

Nothing works at all.

It's been so long since I have used a setup like this. You could try a similar configuration with apache. http://www.cmdln.org/2008/06/10/dynamic-reverse-proxy-with-apache-mod_rewrite-and-mod_proxy/ Thats interesting, looks like possibly a bug in Nginx.

Just tell you some problems I got. It works perfectly if I replace the directive proxy_pass http://$host$uri by proxy_pass http://10.0.0.100; #(IP of the original web server ) But if I do so, there's no dynamic any more. if I use proxy_pass http://$host$uri and add something like 10.0.0.100 example.com in the /etc/hosts file errors occur. I use Ubuntu 10.04 with NginX 0.8.54 errors got: 2011/04/05 14:41:21 [alert] 14219#0: worker process 14274 exited on signal 11 2011/04/05 14:41:22 [alert] 14219#0: worker process 14275 exited on signal 11 2011/04/05 14:41:25 [alert] 14219#0: worker process 14276 exited on signal 11 Thanks for your very good tutorial.

I've got this sorta-kinda working, but I've also caught a snag. It's redirecting to the correct site at the moment, but it's breaking my css and functionality on a phpbb forum whenever I access it outside the local network (it works fine inside the local network). You can see what I'm talking about at forum.iseekthegrail.com/forum/ any ideas? (I also posted this question at linuxquestions under the "software" questions area.
