proxy_pass nginx example not working

[garyservin]

I've followed the instructions on http://tailon.readthedocs.org/en/latest/#usage-with-nginx to get a proxy_pass on my server.

I can see the tailon interface, but the content is never updated. The js console doesn't throw any errors but looking at the network monitor, it seems I'm not able to connect to the websocket

Did someone else have a similar issue? Thanks!

I was experiencing the same issue. I was using the nginx version from EPEL. I added the nginx repo and installed from there, and things are working now. (nginx/1.8.1)

I just followed the instructions from the documentation with nginx 1.6.2 (the one that comes with debian jessie) and everything seems to work as expected. Could you share the nginx version you are running? Perhaps there is a http proxy between you and your server that doesn't support websockets?

I'm using nginx from debs in Ubuntu 14.04

nginx version: nginx/1.4.6 (Ubuntu)
