multiple location blocks in nginx and proxy pass

Question

I am trying to run 2 applications behind an NGINX server.

one is listening on 3000 (grafana) and one is listening on 9090 (prometheus)

My current server block nginx.conf looks like this:

server {
  listen 80;
  root /usr/share/nginx/html;
  index index.html index.htm;

  location / {
   proxy_pass http://localhost:3000/;
  }

location /prometheus{
   proxy_pass http://localhost:9090/;
  }

}

Now for Grafana, this works perfectly and everything works in the dashboard. But when typing Domain/prometheus it still redirects me to grafana instead of Prometheus.

Do I need todo something specific to have it working in this setup that everything besides /prometheus is redirected to grafana?

Answer 1

So I solved it now by doing this:

server {
  listen 80;
  root /usr/share/nginx/html;
  index index.html index.htm;
    
location /prometheus {
   proxy_pass http://localhost:9090/prometheus;
  }

   
location / {
   proxy_pass http://localhost:3000/;
  }


}
