Hi

I am tying to install HttpUploadProgressModule. It works well,  
but (probalby due to some misconfiguration) it stores data in  
/usr/html/progress,  
and complains if it doesn’t exists. What should i set additionaly to  
change this path?

Current configure options:

./configure --prefix=/usr   
–conf-path=/etc/nginx/nginx.conf   
–http-fastcgi-temp-path=/var/lib/nginx/fastcgi   
–pid-path=/var/run/nginx.pid   
–http-proxy-temp-path=/var/lib/nginx/proxy   
–http-client-body-temp-path=/var/lib/nginx/body   
–error-log-path=/var/log/nginx/error.log   
–http-log-path=/var/log/nginx/access.log   
–with-http\_stub\_status\_module   
–add-module=/root/nginx/nginx-upload-progress-module/

nginx 0.8.52

–

Thanks

## The upload progress module doesn’t store anything. Can you show us the exact error message?
