In reply to: How do I set up a reverse proxy with nginx?Actually the answer is probably to make an apache server for wordpress, then put both wordpress and my other services behind an nginx reverse proxy a la this guide: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-configure-nginx-as-a-web-server-and-reverse-proxy-for-apache-on-one-ubuntu-14-04-droplet
I’ll just try that barring any more input here.Forum: Localhost Installs
In reply to: How do I set up a reverse proxy with nginx?You are correct in that I want /logs/ to redirect to a different site. However, a reverse proxy provides one benefit that simple redirection does not: I want to hide the location (port) of the site being redirected to. I want to be able to access the service on the 8000 port without opening that port to the web. A reverse proxy makes this possible.
I am willing to go through the giant pain of ditching my nginx setup and starting over with apache if someone can first tell me how to use apache to setup a reverse proxy alongside a wordpress install.

In reply to: How do I set up a reverse proxy with nginx?No nginx people here? I also posted this on the nginx support forum, though I received no reply there either. Isn’t this something that should be really easy? Their documentation is not getting me through it, and neither are my nginx logs. Maybe I should just start over with apache?
