I am trying to serve my Flask app using Nginx. I am able to serve the app using the following server block in my conf.d/test.conf. However when I try to use the application that I have at the following path /uv/ or try to access other images that I've in /somestatics/image.jpg I've got a

Not Found
The requested URL was not found on the server. If you entered the URL manually please check your spelling and try again

.. This is my test.conf file.

server {
        server_name example.com;
        listen 80;
        root /var/www/html/;

        location /somestatics {
            root /var/simage/myimages/;
            add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' '*';
        }

        location /otherresource/ {
                add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' '*';
        proxy_pass http://localhost:1080/iipsrv/iipsrv.fcgi?iiif=/testapi/;}
        #another application
        location /uv/{
                proxy_pass http://localhost:8085/;
        }
        # this is my flask app
        location / {
        include proxy_params;
        proxy_pass http://unix:/var/www/html/flaskapp/flaskapp.sock;
        }

}

How can I fall back to the flask app only if the URL can not be resolved with the other locations? This is the result of nginx -T

  • @MichaelHampton thanks for your comment, you are right I've edited the question. Basiscally all the other ulrs that worked before now throws a 404.

  • Well that's strange. Are you sure this is the actual server block you are using? Please post the output of nginx -T. Feb 11, 2021 at 15:36
  • @MichaelHampton thanks a lot for your help I added the test
