Hello,

I am using NGINX as a load balancer in front of two aolserver webservers. This works perfectly, sadly the AOLserver sometimes has the problem that it just "hangs" until it gets restarted. So it is accepting the connection, but not returning anything back.

Now I am unsure with which parameters to play in the proxy setting to reflect this behavior and say "if the server does not send anything back in e.g. 15 seconds then go to the other server".

Furthermore, is there a possibility to have a different setting for specific locations, so that "mysite://longreportpage" has a timeout of 60 seconds?

Thanks for helping me out.

(from my proxy.conf)

proxy_connect_timeout 50; proxy_send_timeout 50; proxy_read_timeout 50;

proxy_buffer_size 4k; proxy_buffers 4 32k; proxy_busy_buffers_size 64k; proxy_temp_file_write_size 64k;
