Nginx 1.7.0 failed make with Phusion Passenger?

Server NGINX
1

Anyone experience this problem ? I have Nginx 1.5.13 working fine with
Phusion Passenger 4.0.37 source compile. But trying to update Nginx from
1.5.13 to 1.7.0 fails at make stage. I tried both Phusion Passenger
4.0.37
and 4.0.41 and it fails.

Working Nginx 1.5.13 configuration

nginx -V
nginx version: nginx/1.5.13
built by gcc 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-4) (GCC)

–with-pcre-jit --with-http_spdy_module
–add-module=…/ngx_pagespeed-release-1.7.30.4-beta

Now when updating to Nginx 1.7.0 fails at this point with both Phusion
Passenger 4.0.37 and 4.0.41

passenger -v
Phusion Passenger version 4.0.41

removing these lines in
/usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-2.1.1/gems/passenger-4.0.41/ext/nginx/StaticContentHandler.c
seem to have allowed it to compile properly

if (r->zero_in_uri) {
return NGX_DECLINED;
}

I’m one of the Phusion Passenger authors. For Phusion Passenger support,
please use the Phusion Passenger discussion forum, not the Nginx forum.
It’s
here: Redirecting to Google Groups

This is a compilation problem due to some old code which tries to
support
Nginx 0.7. I’ve just fixed this, and the fix will be available in the
next
version, 4.0.42.
