This is just a collection of nginx config notes I’ll up date it on occasion… So with out further ado!
_________________

Getting upload problems
When using the old uploader you may get
“413 Error: Request Entity Too Large”

Mod the nginx.conf file

add/increase client_max_body_size in the nginx configuration file http area/section:
http {
client_max_body_size 32m;
(other lines will also be here)
}

Also look at the php.ini file
/etc/php5/fpm directory if your using php-fpm

php.ini

Check and/or increase the following:
upload_max_filesize = 32M
post_max_size = 32M

Optionally increase:
max_execution_time =300
max_input_time=300
memory_limit =128M

_________________

If the server is not generating php pages

add the follwoing line to fastcgi_params within the /etc/nginx directory

fastcgi_param  SCRIPT_FILENAME    $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;

restart both nginx and php5-fpm

__________________________

The “server_names_hash_bucket_size error”

To fix this issue add this line

server_names_hash_bucket_size  64;

or

server_names_hash_bucket_size  128;

into the

/etc/nginx/nginx.conf file 

after the http Declaration

http {

##

# Basic Settings

##

server_names_hash_bucket_size  64;

 …..

That should fix things!
