Hi,

I have various applications running RoR. In order to improve code
maintenability I have decided to use a single blog application that will
be used by different apps.

So a user will be browsing app1 at: app1.com

And when he wants to check out the blog of app1 he goes to:
app1.com/blog which behind the scene transfer the request to my blog
engine.

I tried the following:

server {
  ...
  location ^~ /blog/ {
    proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
    proxy_pass http://blog$uri;
  }
}

But it seems to ∞ly redirect the request.

Thanks for your upload
