Using Drupal 8 with Nginx as a reverse proxy in a subdirectory configuration

Our web server is currently running Drupal 8 on nginx + php-fpm. We are looking to implement a reverse proxy server to make the D8 website accessible at www.somedomain.com/drupal8

The nginx configuration is functioning correctly:

location /article_dev/ {
    proxy_buffers 32 32k;
    proxy_buffer_size 32k;
    proxy_pass http://192.168.158.148:80/;
    proxy_set_header    Host $host;
    proxy_set_header    X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    proxy_set_header    X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
    proxy_set_header    X-Forwarded-By $server_addr:$server_port;
    proxy_set_header    X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
}

I have also configured the reverse proxy settings in settings.php. The issue arises when I visit externaldomain.com/article_dev/ and the D8 page loads, but without CSS and other resources, as the paths are set to externaldomain.com/path_to_resource instead of externaldomain.com/article_dev/path_to_resource

In previous versions of Drupal (6 and 7), it was possible to utilize the global $base_url for this purpose. However, with D8, the use of $base_url in settings.php has been deprecated for reasons outlined here

Unfortunately, this knowledge does not bring me closer to successfully proxying the second site as a subdirectory...

Any assistance on this matter would be greatly appreciated!

Regards, T

Answer №1

In my opinion, for it to function properly, you need to activate multi-site and include a specific line in your $sites array within sites.php. The modified code should resemble the following:

$sites = array(
    ..existing code..
    'externaldomain.com.path_to_resource.article_dev'  => '<site>',
);
