proxy_pass and trailing / decode uri

Thank you for your answer but it is not correct for location different than
'/'. With your proposal, targeting http://domain1.com/api/foo/bar, socket
on port 82 receives: /api/foo/bar. I guess the only way to remove the /api
part is "rewrite" and involves re-encoding...

Max.
