Hey,
I setup a nginx as reverse proxy + SSL negotiation in front of apache
servers. The setup works find and the configuration is quiet easy and
efficient (url loadblancing, access rules).
But I am facing an issue with upload; as nginx buffer the post request
on local disk before transmit the request to upstream server, I need
lot of storage on my server to handle space and io. Is there a way to
deactivate upload buffering streaming directly the file and reduce the
impact of upload on the server ?
For now, I just find old request on the mailing list with the same
subject but no usefull answer (“perhaps in the future”) or the same
feature but for download (proxy_buffering parameter in
NginxHttpProxyModule).
Regards,
Vincent
I am having a heck of a time, how did you setup SSL in nginx to proxy out to
Apache?
I use the following vhost :
upstream upstream-server {
server 192.168.1.1:80;
server 192.168.1.2:80;
}
server {
listen XX.XX.XX.XX:80;
server_name foo.test.com;
access_log /var/www/foo.test.com/logs/access.log;
error_log /var/www/foo.test.com/logs/error.log;
location / {
proxy_pass http://upstream-server;
include /etc/nginx/proxy.conf;
}
}
server {
listen XX.XX.XX.XX:443;
server_name foo.test.com;
ssl on;
ssl_certificate
/var/www/foo.test.com/certif/foo.test.com.chained.crt;
ssl_certificate_key
/var/www/foo.test.com/certif/foo.test.com.key;
access_log /var/www/foo.test.com/logs/access.log;
error_log /var/www/foo.test.com/logs/error.log;
location / {
proxy_pass http://upstream-server;
include /etc/nginx/proxy.conf;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Protocol https;
}
}
