Dear Sir

We need to proxy pass an url in which [my.domain.com](http://my.domain.com) need to get  
[drupal.apps.server.com](http://drupal.apps.server.com). We configured rewrite and is working fine.

Then we configured proxypass and while accessing [my.domain.com](http://my.domain.com) we are  
getting the contents but we are unable to login to application (Drupal  
admin page). If you are accessing directly through  
drupal.apps.server.comwe are able to login and access the admin page.

Please see our configuration :  
server {  
listen 80;  
server\_name [my.domain.com](http://my.domain.com);  
location /{  
proxy\_pass [http://drupal.get](http://drupal.get) [apps.server.com/](http://apps.server.com/);  
proxy\_set\_header X-Forwarded-Host $host;  
proxy\_set\_header X-Forwarded-Server $host;  
proxy\_set\_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy\_add\_x\_forwarded\_for;  
}  
}

Can anyone please help us on it.

Thanks  
Geo

E.g.:

proxy\_redirect [http://drupal.apps.server.com/](http://drupal.apps.server.com/) [http://mydomain.com/](http://mydomain.com/);

What do the logs say?
