I have two nodejs apps sitting behind an nginx reverse proxy. Here is my nginx configuration,
#main_api
location / {
proxy_pass http://localhost:3000;
}
#chat_api
location /socket.io/ {
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;
proxy_set_header X-NginX-Proxy false;
proxy_pass http://localhost:3001/socket.io/;
proxy_redirect off;
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
}
....
//ssl stuffs
I can send normal HTTP requests with JSON body. But when I send multipart/formdata
, nginx removes fields from my request body. My request contains few text fields and a file. If I access HTTPS
version of my API url, only the file gets ignored by nginx, but when the HTTP
version is accessed, the text fields also get ignored, and my POST
request gets converted into GET
request.
Here is my nginx access log,
103.160.233.51 - - [28/May/2022:07:23:51 +0000] "POST /api/files/upload_dp HTTP/1.1" 500 26 "-" "PostmanRuntime/7.29.0"
103.160.233.51 - - [28/May/2022:07:24:04 +0000] "POST /api/files/upload_dp HTTP/1.1" 301 178 "-" "PostmanRuntime/7.29.0"
103.160.233.51 - - [28/May/2022:07:24:04 +0000] "GET /api/files/upload_dp HTTP/1.1" 401 43 "http://myapiurl.com/api/files/upload_dp" "PostmanRuntime/7.29.0"
And the nginx error log is empty.
What nginx config option am I missing?
