Hello, By default, where does Nginx store files that are uploaded through an html form? I am using a fastcgi application linked to nginx through supervisord. Or is it up to the sole cgi library to decide where to store that file? I am a bit confused here. Thanks!

It’s up to cgi library unless you use upload module: [http://www.grid.net.ru/nginx/upload.en.html](http://www.grid.net.ru/nginx/upload.en.html) – Regards, Valery K.
