[Seaside] Using nginx file upload module

[Johan Brichau]

Hi all,

I'm calling for people who have got the nginx file upload module to work in their seaside apps...

We are trying to use the Nginx file upload module but are stuck when the request needs to get passed on to seaside.
We are using a configuration with a separate '/upload' location that gets handled by the file upload module. The request then needs to get passed to the upstream backend (seaside) but that request still has the URI '/upload' and we do not seem to get it rewritten to the '/seasideapp' URI.


Is there anyone who has this working completely and could give us some advice on how solve this?

The relevant parts of our nginx conf look like this:
We also tried with a named location, but according to the docs, that makes the request arguments be dropped (and we need the _s & _k args for seaside...)
