Nginx proxy-caching Apache autoindex

Server NGINX
1

I’m having difficulty getting nginx to proxy in front of a Apache
server,
the Apache server displays a auto generated directory list, but when
I try from nginx all I get is a 403 error message.

Is there some kind of problem trying to do that?

you don’t have auto indexing on in nginx, set it to on and restart nginx

I tried that, but it doesn’t work,
basically I just need to proxy the Apache page,
but it’s not doing/allowing it.

Please post your config file. Without looking at the configuration file
it is hard to diagnose the problem.

I run 1 server, with 3 virtualhosts,
the other 2 vhosts work fine, its just the one with the apache
autoindex.

NGINX config

user www;
worker_processes 1; # increase value for multiple CPU’s - 2 CPU’s = 2
worker_processes
events {
worker_connections 1024; # maximum concurrent connections to server
}
http {
include mime.types;
default_type application/octet-stream;
server_names_hash_bucket_size 64;
include vhosts/*.conf; # include all configuration files in
/usr/local/etc/nginx/vhosts/
}

Virtual host config

START upstream

upstream my-stream {
server my.server.com;
}

END upstream

server {
listen 80;
server_name lb.my.server.com;
location /
{
proxy_pass http://my-stream; # Use upstream for proxy &
load balance
root /usr/local/www/lb.my.server.com/cache; # Caching
directory for this virtual host on nginx
autoindex on;
}##end location

proxy_store on;
proxy_store_access user:rw group:rw all:r; # set cache
access permissions
proxy_set_header Host $host; # Forward IP headers to Apache
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr; # Forward IP
headers to Apache
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for; #
Forward IP headers to Apache
} ##end server
