It should happen automatically, provided you have set the "using_frontend_proxy" option.  Are you setting that correctly?

I have managed to get this to work by using the Catalyst::Plugin::Setenv and adding SCRIPT_NAME my_app_name to the config file so that this is used to generate the correct $c->request->base.
I don't believe this is the right way to do it though. Anyone got any pointers?

Thanks
Mike


Hi,

Sorry for no responding yesterday, had a full day.  You can set the proxy header directly, just using:

proxy_set_header SCRIPT_NAME /my_app/;

That should do the trick, but may be missing something.  I have a working config on a system that is currently sitting in an Apple store repair facility :/
