Hi all,

I'm trying out nginx. I would like to use it to perform the following:

1. Retrieve a page from a server1 which includes some SSI commands
2. Process the SSI commands, eventually including content from server2
3. Return the resultant page

I've got SSI working when using a local file, but not when using the page from a server1 using proxy_pass.

Here's my config I'm using to try to achieve the above.

events {
worker_connections 1024;
}
http {
server {
listen 80;
server_name localhost;

location /hello-world.html {
ssi on;
proxy_pass http://tom.office.bla.co.uk:8080/hello-world/;
}
}
}
For testing purposes, I'm using a simple SSI command, as shown in the output my browser actually ends up with, which is identical to the content on server1:

<html>




</html>

Do I need to use something other than proxy_pass, or is it just not possible? Thanks!
