Connecting to localhost or 127.0.0.1 pain

Server NGINX
1

Hi,

I’m having terrible pains trying to connect a server application to
another localhost server application.

app1 connects to app2 using http://localhost but nginx doesn’t seem to
understand the request.

Should I add localhost to the server_name???

yes, that would maybe help.

alternatively add “default” to the server_name.

s/server_name/listen/.

Adding “default” to the server_name does nothing, it just adds
another server alias “default”.

indeed, sorry for confusion.

server {
listen 127.0.0.1:80 default;
server_name localhost;
…
}

is the correct config then.
