Nginx Frontend with Apache2 and Drupal6

[Larry P.]

Hi,

I have a dedicated server running Nginx as a front end and apache2 on
port:8080.  An online game is installed as an application in drupal6.
The site works fine without any issues.  The problem is that when
someone wants to visit the site; it is necessary to enter
'example.com/drupal6'.  I wish to change it so that a visitor only needs
to enter 'example.com' to access the drupal site.  I have tried many
modifications of the Nginx and apache2 configuration files without
success.  I usually end up breaking something.  I would appreciate if
some could offer some advice in this area.

here is how my server is configured.

***NGINX 0.7.67***

********sites-available/default********

server {
  listen   80;
  server_name  mywebsit.com;

  access_log  /var/log/nginx/localhost.access.log;

                proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8081;
        }

       location /RADIOEDIT_REST {
                proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:19384/RADIOEDIT_REST;
        }

  location / {
               proxy_pass     http://127.0.0.1:8080;
  }

  location /doc {
    root   /usr/share;
    autoindex on;
    allow 127.0.0.1;
    deny all;
  }

  location /images {
    root   /usr/share;
    autoindex on;
  }

  error_page   500 502 503 504  /50x.html;
  location = /50x.html {

********apache2/ports.conf********

# If you just change the port or add more ports here, you will likely
also
# have to change the VirtualHost statement in
# /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default
# This is also true if you have upgraded from before 2.2.9-3 (i.e. from
# Debian etch). See /usr/share/doc/apache2.2-common/NEWS.Debian.gz and
# README.Debian.gz

NameVirtualHost *:8080
Listen 8080

<IfModule mod_ssl.c>
    # If you add NameVirtualHost *:443 here, you will also have to
change
    # the VirtualHost statement in
/etc/apache2/sites-available/default-ssl
    # to <VirtualHost *:443>
    # Server Name Indication for SSL named virtual hosts is currently
not
    # supported by MSIE on Windows XP.
    Listen 443
</IfModule>

<IfModule mod_gnutls.c>
    Listen 443
</IfModule>

********apache2/conf.d/drupal6********

Alias /drupal6 /usr/share/drupal6

<Directory /usr/share/drupal6/>
  Options +FollowSymLinks
  AllowOverride All
  order allow,deny
  allow from all
</Directory>

Thanks in advance!
