Multiple server blocks - Could not resolve host












0















I am trying to create two different server blocks in nginx. I have:



...



env first_var;
env second_var;

http {
...
server {
set_by_lua $first_var 'return os.getenv("FIRST_VAR")';
server_name $first_var;
listen 80 default_server;
listen [::]:80;
...
}

server {
set_by_lua $second_var 'return os.getenv("SECOND_VAR")';
server_name $second_var;
listen 80;
listen [::]:80;
...
}
}


When I try to reach the second server I get: Could not resolve host: myhost.com. I get the same message if I change the order of the server blocks. However, if I comment out the first server block the second one works (but then I'm not able to get to the first server). Any suggestions?

  • Seems that default_server is screwing everything up....I'd like to keep that but how?

  • It's probable that server_name does not resolve the variable and you are setting the server name to the name of the variable rather than its value.
