Hi!

You must create redirection to the next virtualhost as they are two different requests

server {
    server_name  www.mydomain.com mydomain.com;
    rewrite ^(.*) http://mysite.mydomain.com$1 permanent;
}

server {
listen :80;
server_name mysite.mydomain.com;
root /var/www/mydomain.com/mysite;
......
}

hope you can help
