Hi,
I'm using Nginx to serve a file called crossdomain.xml, that file is used by Flash client to allow socket crossdomain Policy. It's a trick that many people are using instead of having a dedicated app to server that file. The trick is to return that xml file when nginx get a bad request. Since a recent version ( 1.4.7+ ) it seems that a bad request replies include HTTP headers and therefore breaking the Flash client ( instead of returning only the data without headers ). Is there a way to remove those headers? Also I searched in the changelog and didn't find any hints about that change?
Example: perl -e 'printf "<policy-file-request/>%c",0' | nc test.com 843
HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request
Server: nginx
