Comments on Nginx Catch-All Host As Front End To Apache For ISPConfig 3 On Debian Lenny

Any chance of a similar guide for Lighttpd?

Can it be simillar for ISPCONFIG 2?

Thanx

Try this with your setup http://wiki.nginx.org/NginxHttpMemcachedModule

With a few minor changes found in the forums, (http://www.howtoforge.org/forums/showthread.php?t=49443&highlight=nginx) I have nginx running in front of my ispconfig3 control panel and a couple virtual hosts.

ab -c 100 -n 10000 http://hostname/index.php results are amazing.

I am able to compare the original sites to the same sites behind the nginx proxy. The old sites were barely able to run 100 requests per second, the new is in excess of 4-5,000 requests per second.

Nice work, Nedim.

Regards,

Rob

Sorry, but where do you place: ab -c 100 -n 10000?? 

I have it working aswell now, but would love it if you would share where you would place that line of code. 

 Didn't find it on the forum you linked it in your reply

 Thanks

For those who can use IP based vhosts use following setup

listen   YOU-IP-ADDRESS:80 default;

This was you will not have to use a resolver - I had problems with nginx not serving sites if DNS server goes down.

To make it realy works I've got to change the row  proxy_pass http://$host:82;

with this one

 proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:82/;

There is one flaw in this whole idea, and that is when things like roundcube squirrelmail or even phpmyadmin are hosted outside of /var/www/*  things like css etc that are managed by Nginx result in a 404 error.

 Thus resulting improper function of these services, please complete this tutorial by helping me find a fix for this problem.

I think creating a symlink in /var/www/ does the trick, for example :

The real problem is, this would have to be done manually also for any ServerAlias in any Apache vhost.

That makes this configuration hardly usable if you have lots of Apache vhosts having lots of ServerAliases...

Need to remove this line from /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf :

I followed the guide, but beside one main site, all vhosts stopped working: phpmyadmin, roundcube and all apps too.

Every site was refusing connections

Anyone able to point out more recent  guide ?
