Hello all,

I’m having trouble to have an SSI call beeing evaluated once cached in  
memecache.  
For instance.

When I call the first time the page ‘/test/’ which produce the following  
html:  
‘’

the block is replaced by the content  
of  
the ‘/ssi/’ page.  
So the final output is: ‘SSI’

First call full debug log:  
[http://friendpaste.com/71X0cQMkW4qiS5NCuaDnkv](http://friendpaste.com/71X0cQMkW4qiS5NCuaDnkv)

But once ‘/test/’ is cached by memcache (cache value is ‘’)  
The ssi block is not evaluated end the final output is:  
‘’

Second ‘cached’ call debug log:  
[http://friendpaste.com/455AEU8e1Aauv3mU6UQA9D](http://friendpaste.com/455AEU8e1Aauv3mU6UQA9D)

## nginx 0.8.34

upstream gunicorn {  
server 127.0.0.1:8080;  
}

server {  
listen 0.0.0.0;  
server\_name localhost;  
root /var/www/localhost/htdocs;

location @python {  
ssi on;  
proxy\_pass [http://gunicorn](http://gunicorn);  
proxy\_set\_header Host $host;  
}

location /ssi {  
proxy\_pass [http://gunicorn](http://gunicorn);  
proxy\_set\_header Host $host;  
}

## location / { ssi on; set $memcached\_key $uri;#$urlmd5; default\_type “text/html; charset=utf-8”; memcached\_pass 127.0.0.1:11211; error\_page 404 = @python; error\_page 502 = @python; } }

Thanks in advance,  
Xav

- default\_type “text/html; charset=utf-8”;

- default\_type text/html;
- charset utf-8;
