playframework - Reverse proxy for a subdirectory with nginx and Play 2.1 apps -

goal

setup multiple play 2.1 applications nginx using different subdirectory each application.

app1 running on 127.0.0.1:4000 should accessible under 127.0.0.1/dev
app2 running on 127.0.0.1:5000 should accessible under 127.0.0.1/test

configuration

nginx.conf

worker_processes  1;  error_log  logs/error.log;  events {     worker_connections  1024; }  http {     include       mime.types;     default_type  application/octet-stream;      upstream app1 {         server 127.0.0.1:4000;     }      upstream app2 {         server 127.0.0.1:5000;     }      server {         listen       80;         server_name  localhost;          location /dev {             rewrite /(.*) /$1 break;             proxy_pass http://app1;         }          location /test {             rewrite /(.*) /$1 break;             proxy_pass http://app2;         }             } } 

app1 - application.conf

application.context=/dev 

app2 - application.conf

application.context=/test 

problem

with configuration can access both applications, html code loaded. static files (css, js, images) aren't loaded.

i think caching problem. i've tried different nginx parameters, without luck. if request site first time browser responds (for css , js files, e.g. 127.0.0.1/dev/assets/stylesheets/main.css) status 200 without content - content-length: 0. next time responds 304, still without content.

i'm not sure if nginx or play 2.1 configuration problem.

i appreciate help.

use local domains http://test.loc/ , http://dev.loc instead of relying on subfolders. although application.context should work saw many posts complaining don't...

what's more using local domains more similar final - production enviroment, it's easier debug url depended things, ie. cookies.
