I am trying to use nginx to proxy my requests to a custom tcp backend
server that I have. I am following the same model as the default
memcached module with in the nginx code base (1.5.10) , the relevant
config file attached. Tried with most of the keepalive options but I
still see new connections getting created to upstream server. (rather I
do see the connection getting closed by nginx in strace)
Do I need to specifically compile nginx with http upstream keepalive
module, thought it was default enabled but the code doesn’t seem to go
through it looking in gdb. Is there any other specific module or setting
I need to use for the upstream tcp persistent connection usecase.
Thanks in advance,
Jayadev

Looks like you did something wrong in you module. Note that
memcached module explicitly sets u->keepalive when it’s ok to keep
a connection alive.

I am setting u->keepalive = 1 in my module too, but let me double check
that though.
Meanwhile , is the keepalive done by http_upstream_keepalive_module ? Is
it included by default or do I need to compile explicitly include that
module. I don’t see the code going through that module in my request
flow.
