I never run Nginx on Windows, but the official documentation says how: http://nginx.org/en/docs/windows.html.

To run two node applications with Nginx, it's necessary to create a proxy. This is an example of how to alter the nginx.conf file for this:

worker_processes 1;



events {

        worker_connections 1024;

}

http {

        include mime.types;

        default_type application/octet-stream;

        sendfile on;

        keepalive_timeout 65;

        gzip on;

server {

        listen 80;

        server_name localhost;

        access_log C:varlognginxaccess.log;

                location ~ ^/(javascripts|stylesheets|images) {

                root C:app1public;

                expires max;

        }

        location / {

                proxy_pass http://localhost:3000;

        }

  }

server {

        listen 81;

        server_name localhost;

        access_log C:varlognginxaccess.log;

                location ~ ^/(javascripts|stylesheets|images) {

                root C:app2public;

                expires max;

        }

        location / {

                proxy_pass http://localhost:3001;

        }

  }

}

In this case, there are two node applications, one running on port 3000 and an other on port 3001 - the Nginx works as a proxy.

Further documentation: https://www.nginx.com/blog/nginx-nodejs-websockets-socketio/.

In your case, the configuration file are localised in: C:nginx_v1_6confnginx.conf

Backup the default file and update the content with what I posted.

Finally, you can test the reverse-proxy through localhost (port 80 default) and localhost:81, if the nodes servers and Nginx server are running.
