We have just been setting up nginx as a reverse proxy for a node server. Everything worked fine except the socket.io connections weren’t making it through.
You make a reverse proxy with:
location / { proxy_pass http://localhost:1025/; }
However to make nginx (version 1.3.13 +) reverse proxy socket.io you should add change your configuration to:
location / { proxy_pass http://localhost:1025/; proxy_http_version 1.1; proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade; proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade"; proxy_set_header Host $host; }
I learnt this from Chris Lea’s blog which is excellent. Also thank you Chris Lea for your excellent ppa’s.
i have a communication between two nodes and i have two locations
node1 VM_Link:3000 & node2 VM_Link:3001
server name : Domain.com
location/chat {listen to VM_Link:3000}
location/back {listen to VM_Link:3001}
the problem is when i use the first node it calls automaticly the second node and when i use the server and write domain.com/chat it calls in the background automaticly domain.com:3001 and not domain.com/back
WHAT SHOULD I DO ????
