Proxying Offline Web Apps with Nginx

Hello All,

I've posted this to the nginx list, but not much came of it, so I'm hoping for better here:

We're in the process of prototyping some HTML5 offline apps. They work offline when running directly from the app server (webrick or unicorn in this case), but they won't work in offline mode when proxying via nginx. We're running 0.8.53. Here's our config:

user nginx; worker_processes 1;

events { worker_connections 1024; }

http { include mime.types; default_type application/octet-stream;

sendfile on; keepalive_timeout 65;

ssl_certificate /etc/ssl/cert.crt; ssl_certificate_key /etc/ssl/key.pem;

upstream application { server unix:/var/sockets/application.sock fail_timeout=0; }

server { listen 80;

client_max_body_size 4G; server_name server.fqdn.com; keepalive_timeout 5; root /srv/www/application; index index.html;

location / { proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto https; proxy_set_header Host $http_host; proxy_redirect off; proxy_pass http://applicaiton; if ($query_string ~ "^[0-9]+$") { add_header Cache-Control public; } } } }

Any help/guidance is much appreciated :slight_smile:

Thanks,

Curtis
