Hi, I am using mongrel with nginx and I am facing problem when I try to upload a large file. After googling about this, I came to know that I need to configure nginx.conf file by setting 'client_max_body_size' to a value of desired maximum file size. I did that but still it does not seem to work. Files above 200 KB do not get uploaded. I also get a weird error about sockets (Given below the nginx.conf file) What am I doing wrong? Please help.
My nginx.conf lokos like this:
user postgres ; worker_processes 2; error_log /var/www/webapps/FileSharing/log/error.log notice; pid /var/www/webapps/FileSharing/log/nginx.pid; events { worker_connections 1024; }
