Hey DO Community,
Current setup
Droplet 1 - Main Site. Droplet 2 - Blog running Ghost.
Issue
I want to be able to point my domain (currently pointing at Droplet 1 the main droplet) to my second droplet that is running the Ghost Blog with the following url
(Domain and IP’s hidden for security purposes)
Current Config’s
Droplet 1 - Main Config
I have added the following to my NGINX config;
location /blog {
proxy_pass http://(ip of ghost droplet):80;
proxy_redirect off;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
}
Droplet 2 - Ghost Config
"url": "http://www.domain.com/blog",
"server": {
"port": 2368,
"host": "127.0.0.1"
},
However, when I am now going to www.domain.com/blog - I am getting a 404.
Whenever I go to the ip for the ghost install I am getting a message; 502 Bad Gateway - Am I missing something?

Hello,
Have you tried setting your proxy_pass in your Nginx config to:
proxy_pass http://(ip of ghost droplet):2368;
You would need to make sure that port 2368 is open as well.
