Do I need to update proxy pass when changing hostname

Just a quicky, If I change the hostname of my homeassistant installation in settings/system/network/Hostname to lets say farmmachine, do I also have to update the last line in /share/nginx_proxy_default_fix_ingress.conf to proxy_pass http://farmmachine.local.hass.io:8123/api;

Hi @SlinkyHR are you using nginx-ingress? can you please provide us with Ingress or VirtualServer yaml?

Hi,

This is the yaml I am using

location /api {
    proxy_connect_timeout 60;
    proxy_read_timeout 60;
    proxy_send_timeout 60;
    proxy_intercept_errors off;
    proxy_http_version 1.1;
    proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
    proxy_set_header Connection $connection_upgrade;
    proxy_set_header Host $host:8126;
    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 $scheme;
    proxy_pass http://homeassistant.local.hass.io:8123/api;
}

this looks like raw nginx configuration not a yaml, can you please let us know if you’re using vanilla nginx or nginx ingress controlle? asking as this is tagged as nginx-ingress

Ah! I am using vanilla

Hey there! There is no definite answer to your question! Generally speaking you are correct in your assumption. However, it also depends on how you have set up your /etc/hosts as well as whether your home assistant installation is reachable in your network through that hostname.
