Hi, I try configure nginx load balancing with 3 nodes but never show images or ccs style from nodes and always obtain this error: 2012/03/03 22:36:43 [error] 11321#0: \*7 open() “/usr/local/nginx/html/melchor.jpg” failed (2: No such file or directory), client: 181.XX.XX.XX, server: edge.lb.tld, request: “GET /melchor.jpg HTTP/1.1”, host: “edge.lb.tld”, referrer: “[http://edge.lb.tld/](http://edge.lb.tld/)” 2012/03/03 22:38:16 [error] 11321#0: \*19 open() “/usr/local/nginx/html/css/style.css” failed (2: No such file or directory), client: 200.XX.XX.XX, server: edge.lb.tld, request: “GET /css/style.css HTTP/1.1”, host: “edge.lb.tld”, referrer: “[http://edge.lb.tld/](http://edge.lb.tld/)” This is my vhost config: upstream edge { server 72.XX.XX.XX:80; server 216.XX.XX.XX:80; server 184.XX.XX.XX:80; } server { server\_name edge.lb.tld; ``` error_log /var/log/nginx/EDGE.error_log warn; location / { proxy_set_header Host $http_host; proxy_pass http://edge; } ``` } Thanks you! ---

Try `pkill -HUP nginx`. ---

Have you tried accessing the backends directly? ---

With a config as simple as yours, the problem is either in the app or in the backend configuration.

I cleaned the cache and still images are not displayed. I am using 2 browsers for testing and always get the same result.
