Hello everyone.

I'm trying to setup an Nginx proxy on AWS EC2 with the following general
layout:

mydomain.com > ELB > EC2 Nginx > App's Beanstalk ELB

My first configuration was something like this:

http {
upstream app {
server current-app.elasticbeanstalk.com weight 5;
server new-app.elasticbeanstalk.com weight 1;
}

server {
listen 80;

location / {
proxy_pass http://app;
}
}
}

But it stopped working twice so far at around the same time after about one
or two days. After reading more about that setup I found some suggestions
about what could be going on:

http://forum.nginx.org/read.php?2,255961,255961#msg-255961

Is it still necessary to use variables to force Nginx to resolve? If yes,
to use upstream should I set the servers as variables or adding
$request_uri will do the trick?

Bye!
