hi mark.
maybe something like ..
...
location / {
# ...
if ($request_method = POST ) {
rewrite (.*) /system_maintenance.html
proxy_pass http://rails_app;
}
}
ciao :)

I'm working on a facebook application built using Rails. This is my
first time deploying a Rails site, and I'm setting up Capistrano to do

that I would like served to all facebook requests when I'm updating
things, but facebook always sends a POST request. This causes Nginx to
respond with a 405 and report "client sent invalid method...";
obviously you can't really POST to a static page.
Is there a way I can re-direct POST requests to GET requests or force
Nginx to return the static page regardless of the method used to
access it? My backup plan is to deploy a second app on a different set
of ports that always returns the "down for maintenance" message....
but it seems silly to run one app to report you're upgrading another.
Thanks!
