Circus web on subfolder, static files absolute path should be relative

[decklord]

Hi, I'm configuring nginx to route circusweb on a subfolder on my app server, as in:

http://localhost/circus

It's working but all the static files are not being loaded properly, their path is absolute to the host, ie:

href="/static/circus.css?v=6d12a2ee78404c0f52c10de70df855c6"

so it's loading from:

http://localhost/static/circus.css?v=6d12a2ee78404c0f52c10de70df855c6

instead of

http://localhost/circus/static/circus.css?v=6d12a2ee78404c0f52c10de70df855c6

This is my settings on nginx

location /circus/ {

    proxy_http_version 1.1;
    proxy_set_header   Upgrade              $http_upgrade;
    proxy_set_header   Connection           "upgrade";
    proxy_set_header   Host                 $host;
    proxy_set_header   X-Real-IP            $remote_addr;
    proxy_set_header   X-Forwarded-For      $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    proxy_set_header   X-Forwarded-Proto    http;

    rewrite            /circus/(.*) /$1 break;
    proxy_pass         http://circusweb_server;
    proxy_redirect     off;
}

With Chrome inspector, removing the first '/' does the trick.

href="static/circus.css?v=6d12a2ee78404c0f52c10de70df855c6"

@decklord, I am attempting exactly the same Nginx config as you but failing. Did you get anywhere with this? I just had a look at the circushttpd.py file and it appears to have absolute paths for everything so it seems to be a general issue, not just a static files issue:

class Application(tornado.web.Application):

    def __init__(self):
        handlers = [
            URLSpec(r'/',
                    IndexHandler, name="index"),
            URLSpec(r'/connect/',
                    ConnectHandler, name="connect"),
            URLSpec(r'/disconnect/',
                    DisconnectHandler, name="disconnect"),
            URLSpec(r'/([^/]+)/add_watcher/',
                    WatcherAddHandler, name="add_watcher"),
            URLSpec(r'/([^/]+)/watcher/([^/]+)/',
                    WatcherHandler, name="watcher"),
            URLSpec(r'/([^/]+)/watcher/([^/]+)/switch_status/',
                    WatcherSwitchStatusHandler, name="switch_status"),
            URLSpec(r'/([^/]+)/watcher/([^/]+)/process/kill/([^/]+)/',
                    KillProcessHandler, name="kill_process"),
            URLSpec(r'/([^/]+)/watcher/([^/]+)/process/decr/',
                    DecrProcHandler, name="decr_proc"),
            URLSpec(r'/([^/]+)/watcher/([^/]+)/process/incr/',
                    IncrProcHandler, name="incr_proc"),
            URLSpec(r'/sockets/',
                    SocketsHandler, name="all_sockets"),
            URLSpec(r'/([^/]+)/sockets/',
                    SocketsHandler, name="sockets"),
        ]

Finally I made it work using something like
http://circus.localhost/

It didn't work as a "subfolder", circus was assuming that you were on the root. If you find a way, let me know.
