Upload module & Upload progress module do not work together

Server NGINX
1

Hi,

I would like to use the upload module and the upload progress module at
the
same time. Unfortunately, the upload progress module can only work with
proxy_pass and fastcgi, however, not with upload_pass.

Is there a way to use both modules at the same time ?

Kind regards,
Markus

Upload module is known to work with upload progress module. Please see
attached example configuration, it is known to work on my friend’s
server.
Feel free to complain anyway.

I never tried it myself, but one user was reporting that sometimes the
progress modules reports incorrect results toward the end of the upload.
I tried to fix it on my side but I didn’t had much time to do so.

Maybe the configuration you gave overcome this issue?
If it does, then I’ll add it to the progress module example as
reference, if you do agree.

Also, I wondered (although I don’t really have the development bandwidth
nowadays), if we could find a way to have the progress module using
hooks in the upload module to report the right upload progress instead
of the crude and fragile hack I adopted for the regular nginx.

Thanks,

No it doesn’t. The problem you described most likely happens because
client request body carrying files contains encapsulation as well as
form
fields. This inflates request body up to certain amount.

In fact upload module is a small hack as well.

But you can take a look at (not officially published yet) branch 2.1 of
upload module and see how discarding and unzip modules are implemented:

http://grid.net.ru/nginx/download/nginx_upload_module-2.1.0.tar.gz

Although filters in this branch of upload module are not chainable yet,
I
plan to implement it. And if you make any filter based on current
implementation in between, it will be very easy to integrate such
additional filter.
