nginx reverse proxy for M/Monit (not monit)

[Barbecue Sauce]

Hello all -

Apologies if this has been asked & answered already - I can't find a way to search the mailing list and I'm largely learning nginx the hard way.

I have an internet-facing nginx https server reverse proxying a number of internal apps on varying servers. In general, they run http internally.

To this point, I've been able to get 11 of the 12 working this way. The last one (M/Monit) is proving to be difficult...

My config is below. When I go to https://nginx.serv.er/mmonit/, it comes back with a weird https://nginx.serv.er:2882/mmonit/ URL, making me think my config is just wrong. That said, the config came from the team at M/Monit...

Does anyone have any ideas they could share?

Thanks in advance.
