I am having an intriguing problem where whenever I use add_header
in my virtual host configuration on an ubuntu server running nginx with PHP and php-fpm it simply doesn't work and I have no idea what I am doing wrong. Here is my config file:
server {
listen 80; ## listen for ipv4; this line is default and implied
#listen [::]:80 default ipv6only=on; ## listen for ipv6
root /var/www/example.com/webroot/;
index index.html index.htm index.php;
# Make site accessible from http://www.example.com/
server_name www.example.com;
# max request size
client_max_body_size 20m;
# enable gzip compression
gzip on;
gzip_static on;
gzip_min_length 1000;
gzip_proxied expired no-cache no-store private auth;
gzip_types text/plain text/css application/x-javascript text/xml application/xml application/xml+rss text/javascript;
add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' '*';
add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Credentials' 'true';
add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Headers' 'Authorization,Content-Type,Accept,Origin,User-Agent,DNT,Cache-Control,X-Mx-ReqToken';
add_header 'Access-Control-Allow-Methods' 'GET, POST, OPTIONS, PUT, DELETE';
add_header PS 1
location / {
# First attempt to serve request as file, then
# as directory, then fall back to index.html
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string;
# Uncomment to enable naxsi on this location
# include /etc/nginx/naxsi.rules
}
location ~* \.(css|js|asf|asx|wax|wmv|wmx|avi|bmp|class|divx|doc|docx|eot|exe|gif|gz|gzip|ico|jpg|jpeg|jpe|mdb|mid|midi|mov|qt|mp3|m4a|mp4|m4v|mpeg|mpg|mpe|mpp|odb|odc|odf|odg|odp|ods|odt|ogg|ogv|$

access_log off;

add_header Pragma public;
add_header Cache-Control "max-age=31536000, public";
}
# pass the PHP scripts to FastCGI server listening on 127.0.0.1:9000
location ~ \.php$ {
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
# NOTE: You should have "cgi.fix_pathinfo = 0;" in php.ini
# With php5-cgi alone:
#fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
# With php5-fpm:
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/example.sock;
fastcgi_index index.php?$query_string;
include fastcgi_params;
# instead I want to get the value from Origin request header
}
# Deny access to hidden files
location ~ /\. {
deny all;
access_log off;
log_not_found off;
}
error_page 403 /403/;
}
server {
listen 80;
server_name example.com;
rewrite ^ http://www.example.com$request_uri? permanent;
}
I've tried adding the headers to the other location sections but the result is the same.
Any help appreciated!!
It turns out that trying to update nginx to the newest version was causing this. I had tried previously to reinstall which seemed to reinstall it correctly but actually Ubuntu wasn't properly removing nginx. So all I had to do is reinstall Ubuntu server and install everything anew using just the standard ubuntu repositories.
