hi there,
I have searched through the Digital Ocean community for this problem that I am having and I was not able to resolve it.
I’m trying to point
app A -> siteA.com dev app A -> dev.siteA.com
what is happening dev app A -> dev.siteA.com app A -> dev.siteA.com
here is my **zone file **
$ORIGIN siteA.com.
$TTL 1800
siteA.com. IN SOA ns1.digitalocean.com. hostmaster.siteA.com. 1460656377 10800 3600 604800 00000
siteA.com. 1800 IN NS ns1.digitalocean.com.
siteA.com. 1800 IN NS ns2.digitalocean.com.
siteA.com. 1800 IN NS ns3.digitalocean.com.
siteA.com. 1800 IN A 000.000.00.00
www.siteA.com. 1800 IN CNAME siteA.com.
siteA.com. 1800 IN MX 10 store1.test.net.
siteA.com. 1800 IN MX 0 smtp.test.net.
dev.siteA.com. 1800 IN CNAME siteA.com.
here is my Nginx setup for siteA
**server_tokens off; # for security-by-obscurity: stop displaying nginx version
map $http_upgrade $connection_upgrade {
default upgrade;
'' close;
}
# HTTP
server {
listen 80; # if this is not a default server, remove "default_server"
location ~* "^/[a-z0-9]{40}\.(css|js)$" {
root /home/siteA/bundle/programs/web.browser;
access_log off;
expires max;
}
server_name siteA.com; .
location / {
proxy_pass http://localhost:8080;
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
proxy_set_header Host $host;
}
}
here is my Nginx setup for dev.siteA
# this section is needed to proxy web-socket connections
map $http_upgrade $connection_upgrade {
default upgrade;
'' close;
}
# HTTP
server {
listen 80; # if this is not a default server, remove "default_server"
server_name dev.siteA.com;
location / {
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8080;
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade; # allow websockets
proxy_set_header Connection $connection_upgrade;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $remote_addr; # preserve client IP
# the root path (/) MUST NOT be cached
if ($uri != '/') {
expires 30d;
}
}
}
thank you for reading ;)

Here’s the tutorial on how to host multiple websites on Nginx securely - https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-host-multiple-websites-securely-with-nginx-and-php-fpm-on-ubuntu-14-04
It appears that this is configured correctly but both sites are passing all requests through to the service running on port 8080 on your droplet. For dev.siteA it shows 127.0.0.1:8080 while for siteA you have localhost:8080 - these two addresses point to the same location.
