I'm trying out the new 0.7.13 release which permits to use "" as server name,
but there must be something wrong with my configuration since I can't get this
new feature to work.
Here's the relevant snippet from my configuration file:
http {
access_log off;
recursive_error_pages off;
server {
listen 123.123.123.123:80;
server_name _ "";
error_page 400 /400.html;
location /400.html {
internal;
if ($host = "") {
access_log /var/log/access.log;
}
}
location / {
fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:1234;
fastcgi_intercept_errors on;
}
}
}
I thought that with this configuration I'd be able to:
- have the application behind the fastcgi server receive requests with no Host:
header specified.
- log into access.log when my custom 400 error page is served, but only if no
Host: header is present.
Instead the behaviour I'm observing is that when nginx receives a request
without the Host: header my custom 400 page gets served without sending the
request to the fastcgi server and nothing is logged into access.log either.
$host is this case is "_", server_name. You should use $http_host.
