What is meant by keepalive_timeout - 6 years ago

Hello, does this setting (keepalive_timeout) close only idle connections after the set time? if I set keepalive_timeout 5; this wont close current active connections if it is still downloading/working, right? I am trying to maximize the server for 1000's of users so I may have 600 active requests at the same time so I want to free up idle connections as soon as possible so I don't hit the 1024 ma

Re: Known issues - 6 years ago

Oh, okay, and I can just leave server_name localhost; ?

Re: Known issues - 6 years ago

Oh, okay, so it will work if I just leave it as server_name localhost; ? Also, it looks like in Violet, there are nginx-org.conf and nginx-win.conf but no nginx.conf so I was wondering once I copy over nginx_basic over my current nginx.exe, which config does the new version use? (nginx.conf, nginx-org.conf or nginx-win.conf) Thanks

Re: Known issues - 6 years ago

Okay, I got the status page to work :) and does the setting for server_name always have to be changed to my domain name? what if I don't have a domain name, can I just put the servers IP Address?; server { listen 80; server_name localhost;

Re: Known issues - 6 years ago

Hello, so the free one has the issues but the commercial one does not? or is nginx 1.13.8.1 Violet still free for personnel use? Looks as though from the old Apache logs, i was only needing like 400 connection requests at a time, so I should be good to stick with the free one for now? is there a config like Apache has that I can enable in Nginx that shows me how many concurrent workers/connecti

Known issues - 6 years ago

I just wanted to confirm by the issues stated below that there is no point in having set more than 1 Worker Process and no more than 1024 Worker connections and by putting anything more, Windows/Nginx will ignore it? If I have external 2000 connections trying to start, they have to wait until one frees up even if I was to put 2048 Worker connections and Auto for Worker processes, right? Known

If I go to localhost from the machine it is fine but not able to resolve site externally

How to configure Nginx for Windows - 6 years ago

Hello, I am looking for a better alternative for my webserver other than Apache for my Windows server. When the server is under high loads at peek times (streaming server with 1000's of users accessing 2-3 MB files all at once) I find that it starts to serve files a lot slower and get timeouts. The system resources are not high at all so must be the web service (Apache) so I was wondering if Nginx
