Bahmni docker installation along existing nginx reverse proxy

Hello everyone,

I’ve been trying to install Bahmni Lite via docker as documented on the “Getting Started Quickly with Bahmni on Docker” section, alongside an already installed nginx serving as a reverse proxy for other apps, on an ubuntu VPS.

Therefore, I were using the docker-compose.yml found in github Bahmni/bahmni-docker . It seems that bahmni has its own proxy listening on port 80 and 443, and after exploring the architecture documentation, I saw it is based on apache.

Since my host nginx service is already using those ports, I changed bahmni proxy’s ports to 7080 and 7443 in order to avoid ports conflicts. The changes I have done from the default configs are given in the embedded screenshot below (because they have localhost links and I couldn’t add more than 2 links as a new member).

Then, I added a server block in my nginx config.

/etc/nginx/sites-available/test content : /etc/nginx/sites-available/test - Pastebin.com

Restarted nginx. Then I ran run-bahmni.sh

The containers are run successfully. docker ps output: docker ps - Pastebin.com

However, when I try to access test.mydomain.com on the browser I get 302 Found as a Response Header Status. It says “The page isn’t redirecting properly” on Firefox, or “Too many redirections…” on chrome . I expected that nginx will receive the requests and forward them to bahmni’s proxy.

Does someone know where in the configuration did I do wrong? Or any solutions to make bahmni work together with nginx ?

Thank you in advance.

@tebokaroa did you ever figure way around this case. I have arrived on the same point. If you did led a pointer and i will forever be thankful :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
