Reverse Proxy

[intlabs]

Hi,

I'm trying to put node-unblocker behind a reverse proxy for intranet access:

I need to have under a subdirectory, and have modified the code to point to /foo/bar as it's root and it is working perfectly on it's own. But when I put nginx infront of node-unblocker I get stuck in a redirect loop:

curling node-unblocker directly results in the expected output:

curl -i http://172.16.6.168:800/foo/bar/proxy/http://example.com/
**expected output**

while the proxy returns:

curl -i http://172.16.6.168/foo/bar/proxy/http://example.com
HTTP/1.1 307 Temporary Redirect
Date: Wed, 25 Mar 2015 13:28:05 GMT
Transfer-Encoding: chunked
Connection: keep-alive
Set-Cookie: unblocker.sid=s%3AOWn3F7Kx4eGCwtoTxgeui6ui.w0vbLLD3wwWYHCXUQly85wTf0PhwEj9S89ccLrhrQCo; Path=/
location: http://172.16.6.168/foo/bar/proxy/http://localhost/foo/bar/proxy

The relevant section of my nginx config is:

location /foo/bar/ {
        proxy_pass        http://X.X.X.X:XX/foo/bar/;
        proxy_http_version 1.1;
        proxy_pass_header Server;
        proxy_redirect off;
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
        proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
        }

Im sure i must be missing something pretty simple? If you had any pointers it would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Pete
