There is still my nginx_upload_progress module.
This is a hack that works only with 1 worker process.
This also hasn't really been tested under load (and I have at least one
user reporting a few crash that are being investigated (but couldn't be
reproduced in the lab)), but YMMV.

You can find the source code and more information here:

Let me know if you use this.

Hey Brice,

Thanks - yes I have seen this and it looks like a really useful
module. Does it support tracking for multiple file uploads within
the same HTTP POST ?

I have an existing upload bar that updates for multiple file uploads
and am reluctant to switch from this code unless absolutely necessary.

My best-case solution would be a simple flag to switch off the file
upload buffering in nginx - are you aware of any patches for this ?

Thanks,
Chris.
