Hi all

I’m new to Nginx, I have setup a reverse proxy with Nginx and I have a  
REST service in the backend, so in order to access that REST service  
from my web site, crossdomain issue, I need the reverse proxy server, I  
found the Nginx reverse proxy works fine with all GET request, but it  
fails for all POST requests, the REST server reports cannot find request  
path, so did I miss something? Is there any special setting for POST  
method when to setup reverse proxy server?Thanks a lot!

Cheers  
Ramon
