Hi all,

Would someone who knows nginx be able to help me please set up my server conf file so it works and hides my app URL and replaces it with the domain I have registered?

Many thanks in advance!

Phil



Current site URL: https://aqmrgdtevbjxsky-pprdb.adb.uk-london-1.oraclecloudapps.com/ords/r/dev/aussietennis/

I have a domain which is: aussietennis.club which formwards to a VM with nginx running on 140.238.84.46. This should then forward traffic to the above. In a perfect world, the above URL would look as https://aussietennis.club

When the site is navigated, all traffic should show URLS as follows: https://aussietennis.club/ords/r/dev/aussietennis/create-game?clear=10&session=107131688432281 etc etc

and not the following which is valid but is not using the domain I've got:
https://aqmrgdtevbjxsky-pprdb.adb.uk-london-1.oraclecloudapps.com/ords/r/dev/aussietennis/create-game?clear=10&session=107131688432281

My conf file is below:

server {
server_name aussietennis.club www.aussietennis.club;
root /usr/share/nginx/html/aussietennis.club;
index index.html;
try_files $uri /index.html;

hi Phil, I'm trying to something very similar, but with a twist.
I have my own domain, say mytennisapp.ie.
I have an oracle cloud account and on one of the compute instances I have nginx and wordpress installed.
my domain a record points to this vm.
I have an apex app, 154, including a public page (40) for registration.
currently, mytennisapp.ie runs my wordpress site (which has a link to my app, a tennis event manager), and mytennisapp.ie/ords runs my tennis app by redirecting to mycloudurl/ords/f?p=154.

so far so good.

i'd like to achieve the following:
mytennisapp.ie/apex runs apex developer
mytennisapp.ie/events runs my app (instead of ../ords)
mytennisapp.ie/register runs my app landing on public page (f?p=154:40)

and retaining the mytennisapp.ie/* url rather than the ugly cloud url.
did you ever work out how to do that? and any advice on my redirect wishes greatly appreciated.
