Actually, no. Nginx has only non-caching reverse proxying mode. But if your backend is some dynamic application on php/perl/java/etc, you can use memcached module to cache your answers and then nginx can get pages from cache.
For reference, I've uploaded my configuration file to a different server: http://macographie.com/nginx.conf.txt
As you'll see, I have two virtual hosts defined. Eventually, I would like to have both hosts capable of server both RoR applications and static server content.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
It looks really interesting, can't wait to try it out.
All ideas are the same but you need some additional params in server section of config to assign specific certificates for virtual host.
If nginx is running the ssl and reverse proxying to apache, does the _Apache_ have to be running ssl...or is the connection between nginx and apache encrypted. Just thought of that after reading some info on Pound and seeing how it acts as an SSL wrapper.
Fired up nginx running an ssl connection and reverse proxying it to Apache.
All seemed to work okay. Fired up Squirrelmail and was able to read messages just fine. I did notice a problem when I tried to send message. After I hit "send" in Squirrelmail, the page wouldn't refresh to the message list, but stayed in the message edit page. The message DID get sent (I checked) but Squirrel wouldn't leave the compose message page.
I checked the error logs for nginx and saw this message:
SSL_do_handshake() failed (SSL: error:14094412:SSL routines:SSL3_READ_BYTES:sslv3 aler
t bad certificate) while reading client request line, client: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, server: www.myserver.com
Here's the server config:
server {
listen 443;
root /usr/local/apache/htdocs;
server_name www.myserver.com;
ssl on;
ssl_certificate /usr/local/apache/conf/server.pem;
ssl_certificate_key /usr/local/apache/conf/server.key;
ssl_session_timeout 5m;
location / {
root shtml;
index index.shtml index.html;
location / {
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8080/;
proxy_redirect off;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
client_max_body_size 10m;
client_body_buffer_size 128k;
proxy_connect_timeout 90;
proxy_send_timeout 90;
proxy_read_timeout 90;
proxy_buffer_size 4k;
proxy_buffers 4 32k;
proxy_busy_buffers_size 64k;
proxy_temp_file_write_size 64k;
}
Location: http://www.myserver.com:8080/webmail/src/right_...
So, it looks like the Apache backend is misbehaving and not trying to redirect to
"https://www.myserver.com/webmail..."
I've seen several pages on how to configure Apache as a reverse proxy, but can't seem to find much on how it should be configured to be the backend.
сейчас у меня крутится apache-mpm-itk но в общем-то мне не нужен апач на сервере. но нужно раздавать кучу всякой статики для которой судя по всему nginx подходит как нельзя лучше...
For files larger than a few hundred kB, I often get a 206 partial or a 200, but the file does not send completely. This is very irregular. Sometimes it works, sometimes not. Any ideas?
Thanks.

I am trying to configure Nginx as proxy POP3 server on a Linux 2.6.x system. When I try to use the example config files, nginx daemon says imap and mail as unrecognized words. Would appreciate any help in this regards.

Thanks for the previous response.
Is it possible to enable SSL between NGINX and backend POP server. Can somebody please share any example configuration to achive this.
Basically the scenario I am talking about is, the end user POP3 client talks to the NGINX pop proxy over TCP port 110, then the NGINX server talks to backend POP3 server over SSL socket say 995.
I tried compiling the NGINX with mail_ssl support, but the TCP connection between NGINX and backend pop3 server gets established but SSL session set up does not happen.
I appreciate any help in this regard.
Thanks and regards

Если создать .htaccess и в нём прописать. то будет работать?
Could nginx be used as a HTTP wrapper for TCP protocols that do not speak HTTP, such as RTMP? Or with added SSL to function like stunnel?
