I am using NGINX with proxy pass to act as reverse proxy. On the backend, we have only one server.

http://localhost:5000/index.html
http://localhost:5000/default.html

I have following condition in nginx.conf

location /one/ {
                        root http://localhost:5000;
                        proxy_pass http://localhost:5000;
                        index index.html
                        
                }

 location /two/ {
                        root http://localhost:5000;
                        proxy_pass http://localhost:5000;
                        index default.html
                         
                }

Issue: Whether I request location one or location two, system always load the index.html page.

What changes I need to make to fix this issue.

why dont you just do proxy_pass http://localhost:5000/default.html; in /two/ entry? – Bijay Regmi Dec 10 '20 at 15:59
also i think root entry is unnecessary. – Bijay Regmi Dec 10 '20 at 16:00
@JackSparrow: I tried it. For some reason, default.html loads, but the subsequent resources does not load. I get 404 error for remaining resources. – SharpCoder Dec 10 '20 at 16:04
from my experience it works when you just do location /two/ { proxy_pass http://localhost:5000; } – Bijay Regmi Dec 10 '20 at 19:25
