Hey all - I am having trouble migrating from my Apache install the is perfroming the reverse proxy function for our SAP system to the newly installed nginx 1.5.4 (running on Windows 2012). I have been playing around for a couple days and have come close to getting this to work, but I am just missing something (or lots of somethings). I also believe one of my changes to make it work may be making it worse, but we will see. If someone can look at the old code and the new code and give me some pointers, I would appreciate it.

Old code:
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
# RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} ^TRACE
# RewriteRule .* - [F]
RewriteLog "C:\Apache2.2\logs\supply.mydomain.com_log"
RewriteLogLevel 1
ProxyRequests Off
ProxyPreserveHost On
# RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^.*?proxy1.*
RewriteCond %(HTTP_HOST) !^supply\.mydomain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^/(sap.*) http://prd-srm.mydomain.com:8000/$1 [P,L]
RewriteCond %(HTTP_HOST) !^supply\.mydomain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^/irj/(.*) http://prd-ep.mydomain.com:50000/irj/$1?%{QUERY_STRING} [P,L]
RewriteCond %(HTTP_HOST) !^supply\.mydomain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^/logon/(.*) http://prd-ep.mydomain.com:50000/logon/$1?%{QUERY_STRING} [P,L]
RewriteCond %(HTTP_HOST) !^supply\.mydomain\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^/webdynpro/(.*) http://prd-ep.mydomain.com:5000/webdynpro/$1?%{QUERY_STRING} [P,L]
RewriteCond %(HTTP_HOST) !^supply\.mydomain\.com$ [NC]
RedirectMatch 301 ^/$ https://supply.mydomain.com:443/irj/portal
RewriteCond %(HTTP_HOST) !^supply\.mydomain\.com$ [NC]
RedirectMatch 302 ^/irj$ https://supply.mydomain.com:443/irj/portal

New code (nginx):
server {
listen 80;
server_name supply.mydomain.com;
location /{
return 301 http://supply.mydomain.com/irj/portal;
}
location /irj {
proxy_pass http://prd-ep.mydomain.com:50000/irj;
}
location /sap {
proxy_pass http://prd-srm.mydomain.com:8000;
}
location /webdynpro {
proxy_pass http://prd-ep.mydomain.com:5000/webdynpro;
}
}


Thanks much!

After many different attempts I have gotten back to this which should handle the proxypassreverse. I would still think this should help with the rewrites, but it must not. Also note that the site works internally but not externally. Still works on Apache and not sure how to get this to convert over correctly.

access_log logs/supply.mydomain.com.log;
listen 80;
proxy_buffering off;
server_name supply.mydomain.com;
location ~ ^/$ {
return 301 http://supply.mydomain.com/irj/portal;
}
location /irj/ {
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Server $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_pass http://prd-ep.mydomain.com:50000/irj/;

}
location /(sap.*) {
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Server $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_pass http://prd-srm.mydomain.com:8000/;
}
location /webdynpro/ {
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Server $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_pass http://prd-ep.mydomain.com:50000/webdynpro/;

}
location /logon/ {
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Server $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_pass http://prd-ep.mydomain.com:50000/logon/;

}
}

For grins I ran the Apache config through one og the Apache to NGINX converters and received the following code that works but I am still getting stuck at the same point, which is the outside frames are drawing correctly but trying to get the inside frame fails.

location ~ ^/$ {
rewrite ^(.*)$ https://supply.madden.com:443/irj/portal redirect;
}

location ~ ^/irj$ {
rewrite ^(.*)$ https://supply.madden.com:443/irj/portal redirect;
}

location ~ ^/$ {
rewrite ^(.*)$ https://supply.madden.com:443/irj/portal redirect;
}

location ~ ^/irj$ {
rewrite ^(.*)$ https://supply.madden.com:443/irj/portal redirect;
}

location / {
rewrite ^/(sap.*) http://prd-srm.madden.com:8000/$1 redirect;
rewrite ^/(sap.*) https://prd-srm.madden.com:8445/$1 redirect;
}

location /irj {
rewrite ^/irj/(.*) http://prd-ep.madden.com:50000/irj/$1?$query_string redirect;
rewrite ^/irj/(.*) https://prd-ep.madden.com:50001/irj/$1?$query_string redirect;
}

location /logon {
rewrite ^/logon/(.*) http://prd-ep.madden.com:50000/logon/$1?$query_string redirect;
rewrite ^/logon/(.*) https://prd-ep.madden.com:50001/logon/$1?$query_string redirect;
}

location /webdynpro {
rewrite ^/webdynpro/(.*) http://prd-ep.madden.com:5000/webdynpro/$1?$query_string redirect;
rewrite ^/webdynpro/(.*) https://prd-ep.madden.com:50001/webdynpro/$1?$query_string redirect;
}
}

I am seeing this error in the log. Same error as I have been seeing.
