I installed Azuracast to my VPS and also installed Wordpress for my website. Both installed very nicely using Docker and the install instructions Azuracasts documentation provided. Now my only problem is that I am unable to upload the theme I purchased for the website. I am a total newbie when it comes to tinkering Docker images/containers. I have tracked the problem down and it is most likely the nginx-proxy. I need a super simplified instructions how to add client_max_body_size to the .conf file where it needs to be put. So any kind of assistance regarding this problem will be greatly appreciated.
Providing you are using the default azuracast docker setup, one of the simplest way of doing it is to overwrite the /etc/nginx/azuracast.conf file in your docker-compose.yml file
version: '2.2'
services:
nginx_proxy:
...
volumes:
...
- ./azuracast.nginx.conf:/etc/nginx/azuracast.conf
And in your azuracast.nginx.conf (you can name it anything you want) change the 2nd line representing the max body size as such:
server_tokens off;
client_max_body_size 2050m;
gzip on;
gzip_vary on;
gzip_disable "msie6";
gzip_comp_level 6;
gzip_min_length 1100;
gzip_buffers 16 8k;
gzip_proxied any;
gzip_types
text/plain
text/css
text/js
text/xml
text/javascript
application/javascript
application/x-javascript
application/json
application/xml
application/xml+rss;
Hope this helps, well, hope you found the answer before.
For an official answer go to https://github.com/nginx-proxy/nginx-proxy -- but it's a bit more complicated.
Another tip: docker-compose exec nginx_proxy bash and apk add nano and have fun ;)
I want to enable gzip compression on my virtual host with nginx. My control panel is Plesk17 but I have access to server root. I found the vhost nginx config file in this dir:
/etc/nginx/plesk.conf.d/vhosts
and add this codes in server block to enable gzip:
gzip on;
gzip_disable msie6;
gzip_proxied any;
gzip_buffers 16 8k;
gzip_types text/plain application/javascript application/x-javascript text/javascript text/xml text/css;
gzip_vary on;
After all and restarting the nginx, when I check the gzip status, it looks disabled!
For your information, I also have this comments at the top of my config file:
#ATTENTION!
#
#DO NOT MODIFY THIS FILE BECAUSE IT WAS GENERATED AUTOMATICALLY,
#SO ALL YOUR CHANGES WILL BE LOST THE NEXT TIME THE FILE IS GENERATED.
What's wrong? how can I enable the gzip?
To enable gzip compression for particular domain open Domains > example.com > Apache & nginx Settings > Additional nginx directives and add directives to this section.
If you want to enable it server-wide just create new file /etc/nginx/conf.d/gzip.conf add content there and restart nginx.
I am trying to enable gzip compression for components of my website. I have ubuntu 11.04 server and nginx 1.2.
in my nginx configuration of the website, i have this
gzip on;
#gzip_min_length 1000;
gzip_http_version 1.1;
gzip_vary on;
gzip_comp_level 6;
gzip_proxied any;
gzip_types text/plain text/html text/css application/json application/javascript application/x-javascript text/javascript text/xml application/xml application/rss+xml application/atom+xml application/rdf+xml;
#it was gzip_buffers 16 8k;
gzip_buffers 128 4k; #my pagesize is 4
gzip_disable "MSIE [1-6]\.(?!.*SV1)";
and Yslow and google speed measures are advising me to use gzip to reduce transmission over network.
now when i try to curl -I my_js_file i got
curl -I http://www.albawaba.com/sites/default/files/js/js_367664096ca6baf65052749f685cac7b.js

any idea of what i have done wrong or what shall i do to get compressed content?
As others have written, it's not enough to enable gzip compression in your server -- the client also needs to ask for it in its requests via the Accept-Encoding: gzip header (or a superset thereof). Modern browsers include this header automatically, but for curl you'll need to include one of the following in your command:
-H "Accept-Encoding: gzip" : You should see the Content-Encoding: gzip header in the response (might need to output headers with curl's -v flag), as well as some seemingly garbled output for the content, the actual gzip stream.
--compressed : You should still see Content-Encoding: gzip in the response headers, but curl knows to decompress the content before outputting it.
I can't find anything obviously wrong with your config, usually gzip on & gzip_types application/x-javascript would be enough to get you going. If everything is working right you'll get a "Content-Encoding:gzip" returned back to you.
PLEASE KEEP IN MIND: I have much more consistency with GOOGLE DEVELOPER TOOLS (curl just doesn't behave the way a browser would).
In Chrome, right click and go to "inspect element" then go to "network" (then reload the page if you have to), then click on a resource and check the header tab, the output should look like this (notice the content-encoding is gzip, yay):
Request URL:https://ssl.gstatic.com/gb/js/sem_a3becc1f55aef317b63a03a400446790.js

Anyway if you are SURE your content is not getting gzipped, I normally get up and running pretty fast with the following:
## Compression
gzip on;
gzip_buffers 16 8k;
gzip_comp_level 4;
gzip_http_version 1.0;
gzip_min_length 1280;
gzip_types text/plain text/css application/x-javascript text/xml application/xml application/xml+rss text/javascript image/x-icon image/bmp;
gzip_vary on;
You could try this in replacement for your code, and/or tweak your values one at a time to help you localize your issue.
Remember to restart or reload nginx after changing the config.
It may also be useful to check your logs and see if there's anything interesting there should you still be stuck.
I just changed gzip_http_version 1.1; to be gzip_http_version 1.0; and then it worked
I had to enable gzip in my /etc/nginx/nginx.conf configuration:
gzip on;
gzip_disable "msie6";
gzip_types text/plain text/css application/json application/javascript application/x-javascript text/xml application/xml application/xml+rss text/javascript;
Please note that I had to add application/javascript to the standard gzip_types configuration.
You need to run:
curl -I --compressed my_js_file
to make curl send an Accept-Encoding header for gzip - the server will only compress content if the client sends a header saying it will accept it.
NB you can write:
gzip_disable "msi6"
rather than using a regex to disable in IE 5.5 and 6, and you needn't specify text/html as a type because it is always compressed as long as gzip is activated.
I am just taking a guess here, but I think you may have to increase your gzip buffer size.
Here are the files that the browser pulls down from the domain. The number on the right is the file download size.
You may not be able to tell from the screen shot, but all of the text content files ARE gzipped, except for the js file you mention in your question. In the screenshot the js file is the file in green, with a size of about 200K. This file size is greater than what you have specified for your gzip buffers (128K).
The Gzip module docs do not really give a good indication as to what the gzip buffers are used for (whether the buffers are used for uncompressed or compressed data). However, the following post seems to indicate that the buffer size should be greater than the uncompressed file size: Large files with NGINX, GZip, and SSL
Here is my nginx configuration and it works.
gzip on;
gzip_min_length 1000;
gzip_buffers 4 8k;
gzip_http_version 1.0;
gzip_disable "msie6";
gzip_types text/plain text/css application/json application/javascript application/x-javasc ript text/xml application/xml application/xml+rss text/javascript;
gzip_vary on;
I think the keypoints are gzip, gzip_disable and gzip_types.
Just like Alaa I had to add gzip_http_version 1.0; (no version was previously specified) for it to work (I tried on Firefox 27.0.0).
I've experienced the same problem as Alaa, and the problem is caused by Antivirus software, that is currently installed on my computer.
Proxy servers and anti-virus software can disable compression when files are downloaded to a client machine. So if you are running web site in a browser on a client machine that is using such anti-virus software, or that sits behind an intermediate proxy server (many proxies are transparent, and you may not even be aware of a proxy intervening between your client and web server), they may be the cause of this issue.
Disabling antivirus solved my problem with browsers and you don't even need to set gzip_http_version to 1.0.
Hope that will help you.
I have this in Nginx configuration files
gzip_types text/plain text/html text/css application/json application/x-javascript text/xml application/xml application/xml+rss text/javascript;
but Nginx give error when starting up
[warn]: duplicate MIME type "text/html" in /etc/nginx/nginx.conf:25
What is actually duplicate to text/html? Is it text/plain?
For the option gzip_types, the mime-type text/html is always included by default, so you don't need to specify it explicitly.
Setup:
IIS7 serving ASP classic VB script code which generates a dynamic VSC page/file with headers to download.
Response.ContentType = "text/x-vCalendar"
Response.Expires = -1
Response.Buffer = True
Response.Clear
Response.AddHeader "Content-Disposition", "filename=" & strFileName & ".vcs;"
Response.Write strFileContent
Our IIS7 serrvers are behind a nginx reverse proxy. Everything is working fine, except this file download.
Problem:
When using IE and going in through the reverse proxy (load balancer) the file is not downloading as a .vcs but wanting to download the .asp file/page.
When using other browsers through the reverse proxy (load balancer) it works fine.
When using IE and bypassing the reverse proxy (load balancer), going straight to the IIS server, it works fine.
Assumption:
Sounds like it's a HTTP header issue. The only differences I could find in the responses were the additional response headers of:
Connection: keep-alive
Vary: Accept-Encoding
Header Responses:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Cache-Control: private

Is there any light anyone can shed on the issue?
nginx settings to change, or ASP code to add?
So I finally figured this out, thought I'd post it for anyone else who needed the assist.
I commented out the gzip_vary line, from my nginx.conf file - that seemed to fix things but I chose not to set the setting to "off" because I didn't want to forcefully remove the Vary header from other browsers where things were working... commenting out worked.
# commenting this out seemed to work, but I could have set to: off
# gzip_vary on;
additionally, I also told gzip to disable for IE6.
Gotcha: I found that specifying an expires header also caused problems. I suggest you comment out any expires directives while testing and figure out how to filter out as needed.
so, for good measure, here's the updated compression part of my conf for nginx
## Compression
gzip on;
gzip_buffers 16 8k;
gzip_comp_level 6;
gzip_http_version 1.0;
gzip_min_length 0;
gzip_types text/plain text/css image/x-icon text/html text/xml application/x-javascript;
#gzip_vary on;
gzip_disable "msie6";
gzip_proxied any;
