Resolver not working as expected

[Sharan J]

Hi,

Sample conf:

    http{
    resolver x.x.x.x;
    server {
    server_name _;
    location / {
    proxy_pass http://somedomain.com;
    }
    }

I have nameservers configured in my resolv.conf. But, somedomain.com will
be configured in x.x.x.x DNS server only. So, I have specified resolver in
my nginx.conf. However, during startup/reload I get "host not found in
upstream error". Why nginx is not considering resolver conf and searches
only in the nameservers configured in resolv.conf?

Thanks,
Shanthu
