utorrent gui behind proxy

[mn]

I've setup an nginx http server as a proxy to have the utorrent gui avaliable at localhost/utorrent

instead of localhost:8080/gui

I get the favicon and the page shows "loading..." but then nothing happens.

Has anyone tried this?

This is my nginx config, if I use the specific ports it works. Its just that when I go through the proxy, it doesnt.

        location /utorrent/ {
                proxy_pass http://localhost:8080/gui/;
                proxy_redirect    off;
                proxy_set_header  Host             $http_host;
                proxy_set_header  X-Real-IP        $remote_addr;
                proxy_set_header  X-Forwarded-For  $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        }

I fixed it, I cant have the proxy point directly to the gui since it searches for static files under root path and not gui/

shouldnt all static gui files be under /gui?

might mess up the api anyway... fixed for now tho.

Can you shed some light on how you got this to work? It seems my page gets stuck on loading... then eventually times out giving me

WebUI is having trouble connecting to µTorrent.

Try reloading the page.

What did you change?

I am using this:

location /utorrent {
  proxy_pass         http://192.168.2.10/gui;
  proxy_redirect    off;
  proxy_set_header  Host             $http_host;
  proxy_set_header  X-Real-IP        $remote_addr;
  proxy_set_header  X-Forwarded-For  $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;

 }
