FreeBSD10.1: separate static access and script (php) access for nginx

This article is based on the php fourm Discuz (http://www.discuz.net), you should modify the configuration as needed.

Operation system: Freebsd 10.1 with ZFS

1. Enable httpready, aio, tmpfs

# echo 'accf_http_load=”YES”' >> /boot/loader.conf
# echo 'aio_load="YES"' >> /boot/loader.conf
# echo 'tmpfs /tmp tmpfs rw,mode=777 0 0' >> /etc/fstab
# kldload accf_http aio
# umount /tmp && mount /tmp

2. Create tmp mount point for nginx

# zfs create -o atime=off -o setuid=off -o checksum=off -o mountpoint=/var/tmp/nginx zroot/nginx
# chown www /var/tmp/nginx

3. Nginx configuration (nginx version 1.6)

compile nginx from port

# cd /usr/ports/www/nginx && make config && make install clean

make sure that you have enabled below modules:

FILE_AIO
GOOGLE_PERFTOOLS
HTTP
HTTP_ADDITION
HTTP_GEOIP
HTTP_REALIP
HTTP_REWRITE
HTTP_STATUS
CACHE_PURGE
HEADERS_MORE
LUA

create log folder

# mkdir /var/log/nginx

below is the configuration for nginx. Please be aware that I put the configuration in several different files.

main:

user                          www;
worker_processes              4; # Please change this number as needed
error_log                     /var/log/nginx/nginx-error.log info;
pid                           /var/run/nginx.pid;
google_perftools_profiles     /tmp/nginx_gperf;

events:

events                        {
  worker_connections          1024;
  use                         kqueue;
}

http:

http                          {
  aio                         sendfile;
  sendfile                    on;
  tcp_nopush                  on;
  directio                    4m;  #this line can be removed because ZFS doesn't support directio
  directio_alignment          4096;
  recursive_error_pages       on;
  set_real_ip_from            127.0.0.0/8;
  set_real_ip_from            unix:;
  real_ip_header              X-Real-IP;
  default_type                application/octet-stream;
  server_tokens               off;
  server_name_in_redirect     off;
  keepalive_timeout           120;
  log_format                  main '$remote_addr | $time_local | $host | $request | $status | '
                                   '$body_bytes_sent | $http_referer | $http_user_agent | '
                                   '$http_x_forwarded_for';
  log_format                  cache '$remote_addr | $time_local | $host | $request | $status | '
                                    '$body_bytes_sent | $http_referer | $http_user_agent | '
                                    '$http_x_forwarded_for | $upstream_cache_status';
  client_body_temp_path       /tmp/nginx_tmp_client;
  fastcgi_temp_path           /tmp/nginx_tmp_fcgi;
  uwsgi_temp_path             /tmp/nginx_tmp_uwsgi;
  scgi_temp_path              /tmp/nginx_tmp_sgi;
  proxy_temp_path             /tmp/nginx_tmp_proxy;
  proxy_cache_path            /var/tmp/nginx/cache levels=2:2 keys_zone=cache_disk:256m inactive=1d;
  limit_req_zone              $binary_remote_addr zone=scriptzone:4m rate=10r/s;
  limit_req_zone              $binary_remote_addr zone=staiczone:4m rate=30r/s;
  limit_conn_zone             $binary_remote_addr zone=clientzone:4m;
  include                     mime.types;
  include                     map.conf;
  include                     upstream.conf;
  server                      {
    listen                    80 accept_filter=httpready;
    include                   front.conf;
  }
  # Can use curl http://127.0.0.1:888 to check nginx status
  server                      {
    listen                    127.0.0.1:888;
    stub_status               on;
    access_log                off;
  }
  include                     site/*.conf;
}

I will use map.conf and front.conf to separate static access and script access, also separate human access and robot access.

Use map.conf to sort out different access type:

map.conf:

# 基于geo的ip映射
# below are offline download servers ip address (such as thunder, qqdownload)

With this configuration, you can set different access rules for human access and bot access, you can also seperate static file access and script(php) access. It can spped up your website and improve the workload of your server.

Provisioning Services (PVS) and Daylight-Saving Time

With daylight-saving time beginning at week’s end (March 8 at 2am), we got some issues that can occur with PVS delivered desktops and XenApp servers.

Some of the issues that occur as a result of the time change are:

Time not showing correctly in the Desktop or XenApp server,
Desktop failure to register with DDCs,
User inability to log on due to domain trust relationship issues caused by the VM/Domain time difference.

The Fix:

Open up your PVS delivered image(s) in read/write mode after the time change has occurred on Sunday.
Run “w32tm /resync /nowait” at the command prompt.
Set the image(s) back to read only, following your normal image preparation procedures.

Remember, you must reboot all PVS delivered desktops and servers after you make the above changes to ensure they receive the updated version.

Being proactive will help ensure a smooth Monday morning for all of your users!
