nginx location path with proxy_pass

问题:

I have following problem, i'm trying to put a Django app with an gunicorn server on my VPS running Nginx. My nginx config looks like this:

upstream app_name {
    server unix:/path/to/socket/file.sock fail_timeout=10;
}

server {

   listen 80 default_server;
   listen[::]:80 default_server ipv6only=on;
   root /webapps/;
   server_name my_hostname.com;

   location / {
      proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
}

   location /appname/ {
      proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
      proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
      proxy_redirect off;

      proxy_pass http://app_name;

}

}

However when i navigate to my_server.com/appname/ i constantly get 404 error. I'm still new to Nginx, could someone point me in the right direction on how to set the proxy_pass for /appname/ path? I should point out that when location for /appname/ is replaced with / the django app is running fine.

You just need a trailing slash for proxy_pass:

proxy_pass http://app_name/;

it helps you to cut the "appname" prefix so the config looks like:

upstream app_name {
    server unix:/path/to/socket/file.sock fail_timeout=10;
}

server {

   listen 80 default_server;
   listen[::]:80 default_server ipv6only=on;
   root /webapps/;
   server_name my_hostname.com;

   location /appname/ {
      proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
      proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
      proxy_redirect off;

      proxy_pass http://app_name/;

}
