Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
* What led up to the situation?
I attempted to use the sub_filter directive in a location block.
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:3500/;
proxy_set_header Accept-Encoding '';
sub_filter 'abc' 'xyz';
sub_filter_once off;
sub_filter_types *;
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
I attempted to make a request to the nginx server for the location block in
question.
* What was the outcome of this action?
The response from the server was not substituted as expected.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
I expected that the server would substitute the string.
I copied an identical configuration block to an Ubuntu server and it
worked without issue, Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS (Xenial Xerus) running
nginx-full 1.10.0-0ubuntu0.16.04.4.
I just tried to use the filter on a clean jessie system with nginx
1.6.5+deb8u4:
apt-get install nginx-full curl
rm /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default
cat <<EOF > "/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/hello"
server {
listen 80 default_server;
root /srv/dir;
sub_filter 'Hello' 'Goodbye';
sub_filter_once off;
sub_filter_types *;
}
EOF
nginx -t
nginx -s reload
mkdir /srv/dir
echo "Hello world!" >/srv/dir/hello.txt
curl localhost/hello.txt
Goodbye world!
Perhaps there is something else that is wrong with your general configuration.
