Big files truncated

Server NGINX
1

Hi guys,

I get still the same issue on nginx 0.7.67. Medium and big files are
sometimes (I don’t know when or why) truncated. I have a server
configuration for static.mydomain.tld that is doing nothing else than
sending static content (no PHP, CGI …).

server {
listen 80;
server_name static.mydomain.tld;
root /var/www/medias/;
expires 90d;
access_log /var/log/nginx/medias_access.log;
error_log /var/log/nginx/medias_error.log notice;

    location /videos/ {
            expires -90d;
            send_timeout          600;
            keepalive_timeout     600 600;
            error_page 404 = /videos/video_not_found.png;
    }

    location /gallery/ {
            error_page 404 = /galerie/1x1.png;
    }

}

When it fails on images, I have half-downloaded images and when it fails
on videos, the video playback stops after a couple a seconds.
Here is a screenshot of failed images

Has anyone got the same issue? I really tried a lot of things but
nothing did the trick. The hardest part is that I cannot reproduce that
issue as I want. Very though to test then…
Thanks for your help

Config looks sane and shouldn’t cause any problems.

Most likely reason is shortage of some system resources, e.g.
you’ve run out of memory or socket buffers. Other possible
reasons include:

  • something like statefull firewall inbetween which run
    out of states and dropping random connections;

  • nginx workers dying for some reason, likely unrelated to this
    particular server block.

Looking into error_log may be helpfull. Note well: you may want
to look into global error_log as well, not only the one defined
for this particular server.

Hi Maxim,

thanks for your reply. I don’t think firewall could have anything to do
with this. And I don’t find any log related to crashed workers.
All I have is:
2010/07/28 18:19:49 [info] 28987#0: *49 client closed prematurely
connection while sending response to client, client: 213.31.XX.XX
but I think this is not an issue as well.
Nothing in nginx general logs, nothing in syslog

Is there any limit (memory, timeout) I should increase?

Thanks

Axel
