Hi All,
I'm wondering if this is possible. I have just installed Iredmail and it's working fine however I am trying to get it to work alongside apache2 what I would like is for all requests that come in from mail.mydomainname.com to be handled by nginx
and for all other requests to be handled by apache2 so www.mydomainname.com or mydomainname.com would be handled by apache2.
I've configured a server block as shown below:
server {
listen 80;
server_name mydomainname www.mydomainname.com;
location / {
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8080;
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 $scheme;
}
}and apache2 config is listen on port 8080 and vhost is as shown below:
<VirtualHost *:*>
ServerName mydomainname.com
ServerAlias www.mydomainname.com
DocumentRoot /var/www/mydomainname.com
<Directory /var/www/mydomainname.com>
AllowOverride All
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>however when navigating to mydomainname.com I am getting connection refused
