Re: Serving files from a slow NFS storage

Thank you all for your replies. Since all 3 replies suggest some form of caching I'll respond to them together here - The nginx servers that I mentioned in my post do not serve client requests directly, the clients always hit the CDN first (we use mostly Akamai), and the CDN then pulls from these

Re: http module handler, chain buffer and output_filter

Does something is trying to free the buffers directly before freeing the pool in the output filter? Posted at Nginx Forum: http://forum.nginx.org/read.php?2,255866,255867#msg-255867 ___ nginx mailing list nginx@nginx.org http://mailman.nginx.org/mailma

http module handler, chain buffer and output_filter

Hey, i wonder why the server is freezing when i do a request to it and i do not define the "NO_PROBLEM" macro in the code. In my ngx_html_chain_buffers_init i do a ngx_pcalloc because i thought that the server was freezing because of some memory missing alignment(it was firstly static). I am just t

Re: Serving files from a slow NFS storage

Without knowing everything in the mix my first thought would be the NFS head node is being tapped out and can't keep up. Generally you'd solve this with some type of caching, either at a CDN level or you could look at the SlowFS module. I've not checked to see if it still compiles against the

Re: HTTP HEAD timeout

Hi Edho, I know -X HEAD is a hack, but it seems that is the way CouchDB might operate (haven't got a reply back from them). Worked before using an Apache HTTP reverse-proxy, but I like nginx much better. So what options do I have to make nginx behave the same for -X HEAD as it does for --head? P

proper directive to pass requests

Hi All I'm building my configuration slowly. Thanks for all the help so far. My current obstacle is this: As it is now, external users will access an internal IIS web server by using http://my.domain.com. The firewall points to the web server and the web server automatically redirects to https://

Serving files from a slow NFS storage

Hi all, In our production environment, we have several nginx servers running on Ubuntu that serve files from a very large (several PBs) NFS mounted storage. Usually the storage responds pretty fast, but occasionally it can be very slow. Since we are using aio, when a file read operation runs slow

Re: HTTP HEAD timeout

not sure about your original problem but `curl -X HEAD` isn't a proper http request: ``` This option only changes the actual word used in the HTTP request, it does not alter the way curl behaves. So for example if you want to make a proper HEAD request, using -X HEAD will not suffice. You need to

HTTP HEAD timeout

I'm using nginx 1.7.7 as a reverse proxy in front of a Apache CouchDB. Access via browser to CouchDB data works like a charm. However I have trouble with replication (which runs via HTTPs). This is what I found out: CouchDB would issue a HTTP HEAD first and then perform GET/POST as per its algoryt

Re: Use of Certs

If you're using nginx as a reverse proxy you'll want a cert set up on that node. Without it, worst case is your link between the proxy and the IIS server is secure but your link between the remote client and the proxy will be insecure defeating the whole purpose. Best case is an error will be
