How to write nginx proxy pass for the Django application

  • 772

I have deployed a simple Django application in the AWS server and created a config file in the Nginx as follows.

                 server {
                         listen 80;
                         server_name 127.0.0.1;
                         location /portal {
                         include proxy_params;
                         proxy_pass http://localhost:8000;
                           }
                        }

But it is not working and showing as "404 not found".

Django application alone working in a URL as http://public_ip/en/ but I need to serve this application in http://public_ip/portal.

    When configured this way, nginx appends the string /portal at the end of proxy_pass location, that is, your application receives URL http://localhost:8000/portal when you request http://public_ip/portal.

    In order for /portal requests to reach /en, you need to use:

    location /portal {
    include proxy_params;
    proxy_pass http://localhost:8000/en;
}
