proxy_pass works on main page but not other pages

[Brian Carey]

Thinking it through though I think my solution is bad since it implies a 
dependency between the urls defined in the program and the location used 
in nginx, ie. they must match and the program cannot be proxied at an 
arbitrary location. So hopefully there is a better solution than the one 
I found. I hope I'm not asking too many questions.
