This is what I have in my proxy.conf

proxy_redirect  off;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;

#client_max_body_size = 100m;
#client_body_buffer_size = 128k;
#cleant_header_buffer_size 64k;
#proxy_connect_timeout 90;
#proxy_send_timeout 90;
#proxy_read_timeout 90;
#proxy_buffer_size 16k;
#proxy_buffers 32 16k;
#proxy_busy_buffers_size 64k;


I verified, the varianle Host is taken into account.
I didn't see a differentce between
proxy_set_header Host $host
proxy_set_header Host $http_host

just for fun I tried also
proxy_set_header Host blabla.org

and I can see, that this is where phpmyadmin tries to redirect to.

However it inisists on appending the port.

so it redirects to http://correcthostname:8080

The problem is, that is the port number
and (as soon as I run nginx with ssl, the fact, that it still redirects 
to http:// instead of redirecting to http://
