NGINX Reverse Proxy Redirect Looping - william- - 2024-03-13
Hey all! I've got jellyfin and nginx both running in separate containers on the same machine and I'm having a hard time getting nginx to pass requests back to jellyfin properly. I want to be able to access this at apps.home/jellyfin. The initial visit seems to work correctly, but then the redirect to /web/index just keeps redirecting over and over again forever. I have set the base url setting in jellyfin to be "/jellyfin".
I've tried removing the trailing / on proxy_pass http://apps.home:8096;, but then I just get 404 from nginx.
Any thoughts?
server {
listen 80;
server_name apps.home;
location /jellyfin/ {
proxy_pass http://apps.home:8096/;
proxy_pass_request_headers on;
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 X-Forwarded-Host $http_host;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection $http_connection;
proxy_buffering off;
}
}

You can't use the apps.home as both the server_name and the proxy pass address. For the proxy pass you need to provide an IP or, if you're using a host name, you need to provide a resolver.

I forgot to mention that I have a local dns record setup for apps.home.
Turns out that my configuration above did work, I just needed to restart the jellyfin container for the base url to work correctly.
