64-bit versions)

These versions are to support legacy users who are already using

Thank you,

I was really hoping this feature from the 1.1.11 release would make it
into the next stable release (1.0.12)

*) Feature: the “proxy_redirect” directive supports variables in the
first parameter.

Looks like it didn’t make the cut. Any chance of making the next
release? The current limitation of variables to only the second
parameter makes this feature a bit cumbersome.

Because of a number of backend apps that try to redirect, I have to do:

proxy_redirect http://site_1:8080/ http://site_1/;

proxy_redirect http://site_2:8080/ http://site_2/;

proxy_redirect http://site_3:8080/ http://site_3/;

…

proxy_redirect http://site_n:8080/ http://site_n/;

in my proxy params file instead of a simple:

proxy_redirect http://:8080$host/ http://$host/;

Please consider adding it.

Thanks

Or wait about 5 weeks until 1.1 is “stable” (not that it isn’t stable
now).

I realise that the dev branch is rated OK for production but prefer to
stay with the other because I don’t want to break things.

I hope this feature makes it into 1.0.13 due in four weeks as I’ll
need some time to evaluate the 1.1.x branch before deciding whether to
move to it even if it does become stable.

Cheers
