Make Odoo run on port 80 with Nginx.

Posted on October 1, 2015

Hello, first of all sorry for my bad English. I’m new to vps and I’ve been learning to setup my own just now.

So I installed LEMP and Odoo in my VM, i installed WordPress on the lemp stack. Odoo is running in the different port of 8069. Right now if I open my public ip on http://my_public_id (i dont have a domain yet) it will right away show me the wordpress page.

What I want to achieve is, i want to be able to access my odoo via http://my_public_id/odoo rather than http://my_public_id:8069 I know, i probably should have use port 443 https rather than port 80 http, but I want to know how it works first.

I’ve been searching for answers in google, It’s about the server block and proxy passing, but I don’t know, the learning curve is too steep and my limitation to understand the English jargons doesn’t quite cut it. Please bear with my skill on this.

Thank you very much Ralobh

Check out NGINX: Proxy folders to different root - Raymii.org.

You need to add the following to your nginx virtual host config:

location /odoo/ {
    rewrite ^/odoo(/.*)$ $1 break;
    proxy_pass  http://localhost:8069/;
    proxy_set_header Host $host;
    proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto https;
    proxy_redirect    off;
}
