This is what i have.

http {
server {
listen 443;
location ^~ /zss
{
proxy_pass https://www.example.com$request_uri;
}
}
}

Now as per http://gc-taylor.com/blog/2011/11/10/nginx-aws-elb-name-resolution-resolvers/, If you are running nginx as a proxy in front of An Amazon Web Services Elastic Load Balancer (ELB) which is the case for me, it is not safe to merely define an upstream using the hostname of ELB and call it a day. Although i don't want to use this resolver directive here and instead just want nginx to use the system DNS resolver (from /etc/resolv.conf). Is there a way to achieve this ?

Thanks

Seems like nginx is not falling back to the system DNS resolver in case the 'resolver' directive is not used. Isn't this incorrect behaviour ?

Works for me.

What config file shows the problem that you report?

(If the above fails for you, then it may be worth examining external parts.)
