What is different about the configuration of this site, compared to the
other 10? That might hint at where to look.

My guess is that where you currently have

...

>         }

you possibly want instead

  location / {
    ...
    proxy_pass http://abc.xyz.com;
  }

with maybe an extra

  location = / {
    return 301 /EasyPAY/view/LoginMain.aspx;
  }

That looks like the browser asked for /EasyPAY/view/System.js?11, and
nginx said 404. If you check the upstream server logs for what request
got to it, you may see evidence of the problematic config.

nginx might be asking upstream for something like
/EasyPAY/view/LoginMain.aspxEasyPAY/view/System.js?11, which probably
causes it to send 404 to nginx.

Cheers,
