Thanks Umesh,

Somehow I'm still stuck.

This is what I have now:
For testing I try to proxy all accesses to apache.
and I removed the include statement and
inserted all params explicitely

location / {
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8080/;
proxy_redirect http://127.0.0.1:8080/
https://aa$host:$server_port/;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;

index index.html index.htm index.php;
}

with this setting its still
http://myserver/phpmyadmin/... becomes
http://myserver:8080/phpmyadmin/...


Still searching in the web whether I find any other idea.
