I am trying to proxy pass in nginx. here is what the config looks like :
location /amazon {
proxy_pass http://amazon.com;
}
when I open domain.com/amazon it takes me to amazon.com/amazon. How should I write it so that is opens only amazon.com, without /amazon.
You can rewrite the URL to cut the /amazon prefix. Example:
location /amazon/ {
rewrite /amazon/(.*) /$1 break;
proxy_pass https://www.amazon.com;
# bonus configuration for this particular host
# may be irrelevant in your case
proxy_set_header Host "www.amazon.com";
proxy_ssl_server_name on;
}
