The syntax is a space-separated list of the file checksum (CRC-32),  
size (in bytes), location (properly URL-encoded), and file name. The  
file location corresponds to a location in your nginx.conf;

- 428 /foo.txt My Document1.txt

what is /foo.txt? [http://localhost:8000/foo.txt](http://localhost:8000/foo.txt) ?  
does mod\_zip work with x-accel-direct?

i always get ‘mod\_zip: invalid file list from upstream while sending  
to client’ error.
