I use angular on the front end and .net5 on te backend. I deploy my backend to ubuntu 20.04 server and run it with nginx.
I faced this issue while attempt to login. My get functions works well but login(post) is not.
I searched hours and hours and add add_header Access-Control-Allow-Origin *; to my etc/nginx/sites-available/default file.
But nothing changes. Do you have any idea?
Does your .NET backend allows CORS
e.g
have a look at https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/security/cors?view=aspnetcore-6.0
Also while you are modifying NGINX conf make sure to restart the service.
e.g
sudo systemctl restart nginx
I am running into a file upload error with files > 10M. I have followed the advice here: http://meteor-up.com/docs.html#advanced-configuration which says how to set it in the nginx proxy by setting the clientUploadLimit: '50M'
I pushed the changes using mup proxy reconfig-shared, and it told me it had restarted the proxy. It didn't work, I still get the 413 (Request Entity Too Large) error.
I checked inside the nginx-proxy docker instance, and the file /etc/nginx/conf.d/my_proxy.conf has the correct entry client_max_body_size 50M. I restarted the EC2 box to make sure, but it's still not working.
This article https://www.tecmint.com/limit-file-upload-size-in-nginx/ suggests that the setting needs to go inside a http block, like this:
By default, Nginx has a limit of 1MB on file uploads. To set file upload size, you can use the client_max_body_size directive, which is part of Nginx’s ngx_http_core_module module. This directive can be set in the http, server or location context.
http {
client_max_body_size 100M;
}
I can't see how to achieve this, as the .conf file is read only and somehow locked.
Any ideas on how to proceed?
I suppose I could try a custom nginx.conf file, but I'm not sure what should go in there, and in fact whether it will even improve the situation.
Any help is appreciated :)
I'm happy to report that I solved it... I will explain how.
I was setting the limit in the nginx reverse proxy in the mup.js file
proxy: {
domains: 'website.com,www.website.com',
shared: { clientUploadLimit: '50M' }
}
But it turns out that there is an option to set it for each independent server like this:
proxy: {
domains: 'website.com,www.website.com',
clientUploadLimit: '50M'
}
The limit was being set to 10M by default. I found it by shelling into the nginx-proxy docker image and doing a search with the command grep -R client_max_body_size /etc/nginx and it showed me all the places where it was set (for each vhost)
So I changed the mup.js file for my server, did a mup stop, and a mup setup (to re-do the settings) and then a mup deploy
Now this is speculation but have you tried going to the docker container's root shell changed the permissions to give write permission to root or your user chmod 760 /etc/nginx/nginx.conf and edit the nginx file there?
I have a basic bitnami wordpress installation. I followed their guide and setup https and automatic http to https redirection.
However when I tried to load external scripts I get the following error:
Failed to load https://external-script.com/: The 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin'
header has a value 'http://my-site.io' that is not equal to the supplied origin.
Origin 'https://my-site.io' is therefore not allowed access.
Which file should I edit and what should I add?
Thanks
Bitnami Engineer here.
You need to enable CORS in WordPress. To achieve that, you will need to set this line in the installdir/apps/wordpress/conf/httpd-app.conf file
...
<Directory /opt/bitnami/apps/wordpress/htdocs/>
...
Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"
...
</Directory>
After that, you will need to restart the Apache server to load this configuration.
installdir/ctlscript.sh restart apache
You will also find different ways to enable CORS by following our documentation guide.

I followed the official tuto for the Varnish via Docker configuration on plesk. https://www.plesk.com/blog/product-t...cker-container
i have a VPS Ubuntu with plesk and many domains.
I followed all steps :
I created a domain test.monserveur.com
I use the Docker image million12/varnish
On the Docker container setting, the mapping redirect the 80 port to the 32780
On plesk for the hosting parameters, the option “SSL/TLS support” and “Permanent SEO-safe 301 redirect from HTTP to HTTPS” are deactivated
I deactived also the security mod for this domain
On the proxy rules of the docker container (/etc/varnish/default.vcl), i put fo the .host test.monserveur.com and .port 7080
On the function sub vcl_deliver, i put :
if (obj.hits > 0) {
set resp.http.X-Cache = "HIT";
} else {
set resp.http.X-Cache = "MISS";
}
I still have a 503 page with a MISS on the header for the page on test.monserveur.com
I can't understand where is the problem. I tried to put on the .host the serveur IP and with a link to another domain of the server. I think it's a problem with a setting but i don't know where.
Thanks in advance
A 503 error response from Varnish means that your Docker container is not configured properly. You should check whether the container and Varnish within the container are running properly. Additionally, the configuration file must have valid syntax and the correct port and IP address of the server have to be set in the configuration file.
Without knowing what you've entered, I cannot give you a better advice! If you follow the tutorial completely, it will work. I've created over 10 working instances while I wrote the text!
PS: Please use the official Plesk forum with more information (also add your configuration file) if you still cannot solve your problem - https://talk.plesk.com/
Have success!
There's an option to hide the version so it will display only nginx, but is there a way to hide that too so it will not show anything or change the header?
If you are using nginx to proxy a back-end application and want the back-end to advertise its own Server: header without nginx overwriting it, then you can go inside of your server {…} stanza and set:
proxy_pass_header Server;
That will convince nginx to leave that header alone and not rewrite the value set by the back-end.
The last update was a while ago, so here is what worked for me on Ubuntu:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nginx-extras
Then add the following two lines to the http section of nginx.conf, which is usually located at /etc/nginx/nginx.conf:
sudo nano /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
server_tokens off; # removed pound sign
more_set_headers 'Server: Eff_You_Script_Kiddies!';
Also, don't forget to restart nginx with sudo service nginx restart.
Like Apache, this is a quick edit to the source and recompile. From Calomel.org:
The Server: string is the header which
is sent back to the client to tell
them what type of http server you are
running and possibly what version.
This string is used by places like
Alexia and Netcraft to collect
statistics about how many and of what
type of web server are live on the
Internet. To support the author and
statistics for Nginx we recommend
keeping this string as is. But, for
security you may not want people to
know what you are running and you can
change this in the source code. Edit
the source file
src/http/ngx_http_header_filter_module.c
at look at lines 48 and 49. You can
change the String to anything you
want.
## vi src/http/ngx_http_header_filter_module.c (lines 48 and 49)
static char ngx_http_server_string[] = "Server: MyDomain.com" CRLF;
static char ngx_http_server_full_string[] = "Server: MyDomain.com" CRLF;
March 2011 edit: Props to Flavius below for pointing out a new option, replacing Nginx's standard HttpHeadersModule with the forked HttpHeadersMoreModule. Recompiling the standard module is still the quick fix, and makes sense if you want to use the standard module and won't be changing the server string often. But if you want more than that, the HttpHeadersMoreModule is a strong project and lets you do all sorts of runtime black magic with your HTTP headers.
It’s very simple: Add these lines to server section:
server_tokens off;
more_set_headers 'Server: My Very Own Server';
Simple, edit /etc/nginx/nginx.conf and remove comment from
#server_tokens off;
Search for http section.
Install Nginx Extras
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nginx-extras
Server details can be removed from response by adding following two lines in the nginx.conf (under http section)
more_clear_headers Server;
server_tokens off;
There is a special module: http://wiki.nginx.org/NginxHttpHeadersMoreModule
This module allows you to add, set, or clear any output or input header that you specify.
This is an enhanced version of the standard headers module because it provides more utilities like resetting or clearing "builtin headers" like Content-Type, Content-Length, and Server.
It also allows you to specify an optional HTTP status code criteria using the -s option and an optional content type criteria using the -t option while modifying the output headers with the more_set_headers and more_clear_headers directives...
If you're okay with just changing the header to another string five letters or fewer, you can simply patch the binary.
sed -i 's/nginx\r/thing\r/' `which nginx`
Which, as a solution, has a few notable advantages. Namely, that you can allow your nginx versioning to be handled by the package manager (so, no compiling from source) even if nginx-extras isn't available for your distro, and you don't need to worry about any of the additional code of something like nginx-extras being vulnerable.
Of course, you'll also want to set the option server_tokens off, to hide the version number, or patch that format string as well.
I say "five letters or fewer" because of course you can always replace:
nginx\r\0
with
bob\r\0\r\0
leaving the last two bytes unchanged.
If you actually want more than five characters, you'll want to leave server_tokens on, and replace the (slightly longer) format string, although again there's an upper limit on that length imposed by the length of the format string - 1 (for the carriage return).
...If none of the above makes sense to you, or you've never patched a binary before, you may want to stay away from this approach, though.
According to nginx documentation it supports custom values or even the exclusion:
Syntax: server_tokens on | off | build | string;
but sadly only with a commercial subscription:
Additionally, as part of our commercial subscription, starting from
version 1.9.13 the signature on error pages and the “Server” response
header field value can be set explicitly using the string with
variables. An empty string disables the emission of the “Server”
field.
After I read Parthian Shot's answer, I dig into /usr/sbin/nginx binary file. Then I found out that the file contains these three lines.
Server: nginx/1.12.2
Server: nginx/1.12.2
Server: nginx
Basically first two of them are meant for server_tokens on; directive (Server version included).
Then I change the search criteria to match those lines within the binary file.
sed -i 's/Server: nginx/Server: thing/' `which nginx`
After I dig farther I found out that the error message produced by nginx is also included in this file.
<hr><center>nginx</center>
There are three of them, one without the version, two of them included the version. So I run the following command to replace nginx string within the error message.
sed -i 's/center>nginx/center>thing/' `which nginx`
The only way is to modify the file src/http/ngx_http_header_filter_module.c . I changed nginx on line 48 to a different string.
What you can do in the nginx config file is to set server_tokens to off. This will prevent nginx from printing the version number.
To check things out, try curl -I http://vurbu.com/ | grep Server
It should return
Server: Hai
I know the post is kinda old, but I have found a solution easy that works on Debian based distribution without compiling nginx from source.
First install nginx-extras package
sudo apt install nginx-extras
Then load the nginx http headers more module by editing nginx.conf and adding the following line inside the server block
load_module modules/ngx_http_headers_more_filter_module.so;
Once it's done you'll have access to both more_set_headers and more_clear_headers directives.
Expanding on Parthian Shot's answer, you can actually replace the whole header and not only the value as long as the total length is the same:
sed -i 's/Server: nginx/My-Header: hi/' `which nginx`
Nginx-extra package is deprecated now.
The following therefore did now work for me as i tried installing various packages
more_set_headers 'Server: My Very Own Server';
You can just do the following and no server or version information will be sent back
server_tokens '';
if you just want to remove the version number this works
server_tokens off;
Are you asking about the Server header value in the response? You can try changing that with an add_header directive, but I'm not sure if it'll work. http://wiki.codemongers.com/NginxHttpHeadersModule
