Hi -

I need some help configuring nginx as a proxy in front of Jetty (on
Debian).

Jetty is serving my Java web app correctly, because if I test it with
this lengthier alternate notation (which I also used before setting up
the nginx proxy), the Java web app login page appears and I can log in:

http://myhost.com:8080/testapp001.com


But when I do the following:

http://testapp001.com


I get the error message:

403 Forbidden
nginx/0.8.53



Here's my nginx.conf and testapp001.com.xml files

# This file is /etc/nginx/sites-available/testapp001.com
# Source: http://wiki.nginx.org/JavaServers

server {
listen 80;
server_name .testapp001.com;
access_log /var/log/www/testapp001.com/access.log;
error_log /var/log/www/testapp001.com/error.log;

root /opt/jetty/webapps/testapp001.com;

location / {
index index.jsp;
}

location ~ \.do$ {
proxy_pass http://localhost:8080;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
}
location ~ \.jsp$ {
proxy_pass http://localhost:8080;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
}
location ^~/servlets/* {
proxy_pass http://localhost:8080;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
}
}


The Java web app's WAR file has been decompressed to create this
directory:

/opt/jetty/webapps/testapp001.com


Here is file /opt/jetty/etc/testapp001.com.xml:

# Source: http://wiki.nginx.org/JavaServers

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE Configure PUBLIC "-//Mort Bay Consulting//DTD Configure//EN"
"http://jetty.mortbay.org/configure.dtd">
<Configure class="org.mortbay.jetty.webapp.WebAppContext">
<Set name="configurationClasses">

</Array>
</Set>
<Set name="contextPath">/</Set>
<Set name="resourceBase"><SystemProperty name="jetty.home"

<Set name="virtualHosts">
<Array type="java.lang.String">
<Item>testapp001.com</Item>
</Array>
</Set>

</Configure>



This file is /opt/nginx/conf/nginx.conf - the correct symlink was also
created previously by doing:

sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/testapp001.com
/etc/nginx/sites-enabled


worker_processes 1;

events {
worker_connections 1024;
}

http {
include mime.types;
default_type application/octet-stream;
sendfile on;
keepalive_timeout 65;
include /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/*;
}


Here are last the 2 lines of the nginx log files:

#This is file /var/log/www/testapp001.com/access.log

or directory), client: 999.999.999.999, server: testapp001.com, request:
"GET /favicon.ico HTTP/1.1", host: "testapp001.com"


(I have substituted "999.999.999.999" above instead of my client
machine's IP address. :-)

I have also tested setting the owner:group of directory

/opt/jetty/www/webapps/testapp001.com


three different ways:

cd /opt/jetty/www/webapps
sudo chown -R jetty:jetty testapp001.com
sudo chown -R root:root testapp001.com
sudo chown -R www-data:root testapp001.com


But navigating to 'http://testapp001.com' still gives the error message
"403 - Forbidden"

Navigating to 'http://myhost.com:8080/testapp001.com' correctly displays
the login page of the Java web app and lets me log in successfully - so
Jetty and the web app are working - I just can't get the nginx reverse
proxy configured properly.

Thanks for any help!
