Trying to whitelist a 'more' specific NGINX location BUT returns 404 instead

  • 772

I have the following in my nginx configuration:

        # /abx/xyz/ 
        location /abc/xyz/ {
                allow 5.194.207.217;
                deny all;

                proxy_pass http://proxy-server/;
        }

        location /abc/ {
                proxy_pass http://proxy-server/;
        }

Whenever I access /abc/xyz it returns a 404 Not Found error. How can I make /abx/xyz work correctly?

  1. I was missing appending /xyz to the proxy_pass URL.

    So the correct answer would be as follows:

            # /abx/xyz/ 
        location /abc/xyz/ {
                allow 5.194.207.217;
                deny all;

                proxy_pass http://proxy-server/;   # <<< REMOVE THIS LINE
                proxy_pass http://proxy-server/xyz;   #  <<< .. AND CHANGE IT TO THIS LINE      
        }
