    copied!<p>I'm trying to make a nodejs website/server download another website when the user goes to a URL looking like this: <code>http://example.com/test/http://google.com</code></p> <p>The problem is that nginx is rewriting the req.url to <code>/test/http:/google.com</code> when it should be <code>/test/http://google.com</code></p> <p><strong>app.js:</strong></p> <pre><code>var express = require('express'); var http = require('http'); var app = express(); app.configure(function(){ app.set('port', 8080); app.set('views', __dirname + '/app/server/views'); app.set('view engine', 'jade'); app.use(express.logger('dev')); app.use(express.bodyParser()); app.use(express.cookieParser()); app.use(express.session({ secret: 'super-duper-secret-secret' })); app.use(express.methodOverride()); app.use(require('stylus').middleware({ src: __dirname + '/app/public' })); app.use(express.static(__dirname + '/app/public')); app.enable('trust proxy') }); app.configure('development', function(){ app.use(express.errorHandler()); }); require('./app/server/router')(app); http.createServer(app).listen(app.get('port'), 'localhost', function(){ console.log("Express server listening on port " + app.get('port')); }) </code></pre> <p><strong>router.js:</strong></p> <pre><code>app.get('/test/*', function(req, res) { console.log("REQ.URL:"); console.log(req.url); res.send('200', req.url); }); </code></pre> <p>example.com file in <code>/etc/nginx/sites-enabled</code></p> <pre><code>server { server_name example.com; access_log /var/log/nginx/example.com.log; # pass the request to the node.js server with the correct headers and much more can be added, see nginx config options location / { proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for; proxy_set_header Host $http_host; proxy_set_header X-NginX-Proxy true; proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8080; proxy_redirect off; } } </code></pre> <p>Is there a way to make nginx not rewrite like it does?</p>
