That's a shame.

Whether is easy (or even possible) to reverse-proxy the "site1" content
at a different part of the url hierarchy is almost entirely down to the
"site1" content.

What one request did you make of nginx?

What request did nginx make of the upstream server?

What response came back?

It is usually useful to test using "curl" rather than a full web browser,
because it hides less from you.

You got a 404.

I had suggested config without rewrite. Does that one help at all?

(The main difference, I think, between rewrite and no-rewrite configs
here, is the effective proxy_redirect config that applies. If you ask
nginx for /site1/dir, nginx should ask upstream for /dir, and upstream
will probably return 301 with a redirect to /dir/. With your config,
your browser will get a redirect to /dir/, to which nginx will probably
return 404. With my config, your browser should get a redirect to
/site1/dir/, which has a chance of working.)
