I have an Nginx reverse-proxy sitting in front of two JBoss servers. If I attempt to add the second JBoss server to the upstream directive, I receive an Error 310 (net::ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS) from Chrome, IE just displays an "Internet Explorer cannot display this webpage" error. If I comment the second upstream server out a kill -HUP the master process, everything works properly.

I am attempting to use Nginx to rewrite all HTTP requests to HTTPS and upon first contact with our domain, the JBoss application redirects you to https://my.domain.com/home.

Here is my default config file:


upstream jboss_dev_servers {
server 10.0.3.15:8080;
server 10.0.3.16:8080;
}

server {
listen 10.0.3.28:80;
server_name my.domain.com;
location / {
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_next_upstream error timeout invalid_header;
rewrite ^ https://$server_name$request_uri? permanent;
proxy_pass http://jboss_dev_servers;
}
}


server {
listen 10.0.3.28:443 default ssl;
ssl on;
ssl_certificate /srv/ssl/combined.crt;
ssl_certificate_key /srv/ssl/combined.key;
ssl_protocols SSLv3 TLSv1;


server_name my.domain.com;


location / {
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_next_upstream error timeout invalid_header;
proxy_pass http://jboss_dev_servers;
}
}

Any ideas what could be causing this? Is it bouncing the requests back and forth between the two upstream servers somehow?
