Common Nginx Commands
1. Restart
/usr/nginx/sbin/nginx -s reload
2. Check Configuration File Validity
nginx -t -c /usr/nginx/conf/nginx.conf
Or
/usr/nginx/sbin/nginx -t
3. Proxy Configuration
server {
listen 80;
server_name yourdomain.com;
location / {
proxy_pass http://localhost:8080; # Spring Boot application address
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
}
}
proxy_set_header can proxy access permissions and request headers. This configuration is essential when the backend has a whitelist.
