I have the following set to normalize Accept-Encoding headers for squid
which sits down stream.

However, I am getting an issue with the following error...

[emerg]: "proxy_set_header" directive is not allowed here in
/opt/extra/nginx/conf/nginx-master.conf:51
configuration file /opt/extra/nginx/conf/nginx-master.conf test failed


Am I out of luck when it comes to normalizing http headers with nginx?


server {
listen 3000;
server_name localhost;

location / {
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For
$proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header Host $http_host;

if ($http_accept_encoding ~ deflate) {
proxy_set_header Accept-Encoding deflate;
}
if ($http_accept_encoding ~ gzip) {
proxy_set_header Accept-Encoding gzip;
}
if ($request_uri ~
"\.(jpeg|jpg|png|gif|gz|tgz|bz2|tbz|mp3|ogg|ico|swf|mp4|flv|mov|dmg|mkv)")
{
proxy_set_header Accept-Encoding "";
}

proxy_pass http://72.11.142.91:7999/;
break;
}
}
