javascript doesn't seem to be able to post form data (nginx server w/ php-fpm)
- by Jones
So the situation is like so:
I have a nginx server with php-fpm installed. All is well and the site scripts and all work perfectly. I am able to use html to POST form data and it works just fine. However, There seems to be be some correlation between javascript, the POST protocol and nothing happening. I cant seem to determine the issue.
Example:
I have a user login widget that uses javascript on submit the fields and POST the data to a backend auth script which returns a server message that then populates the login box saying something like "Login Successful" followed by reloading the page to properly enable content. Problem is, nothing happens when you hit submit. I do know the setup works because i had it working on apache before migrating. Also if it makes any difference, the server is a Amazon EC2 instance using the Amazon AMI.
I really dont know where to start looking on this one, but below is my default.conf for the server:
upstream backend_get {
server 127.0.0.1:80 weight=1;
}
upstream backend_post {
server 127.0.0.1:80 weight=1;
}
#Main website url
server {
listen 80;
server_name server.com;
#charset koi8-r;
access_log logs/host.access.log main;
error_log logs/host.error.log;
location / {
root /usr/share/nginx/html;
index index.php index.html index.htm;
if ($request_method = POST)
{
proxy_pass http://backend_post;
break;
}
}
location ~ \.php$ {
#fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php-fpm/php-fpm.sock;
fastcgi_index index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
include fastcgi_params;
}
}
