BOA url 404 patterns

Hi,

I'm finding that my BOA instance is returning ugly nginx 404s for certain url patterns. Specifically, at the moment, pages that have the word "progress" in the url alias will return a white nginx 404 rather than a relatively nice drupal 404. I'm presuming that I can add a directive in the conf file at /data/disk/EDIT_USER/config/server_master/nginx/post.d/nginx_vhost_include but I just thought I'd see if anyone else has had this issue, and has succesfully altered their setup.

Thanks :)

The path starting (not just

The path starting (not just including) with /progress is reserved - it is used by the nginx-upload-progress-module, so you can't override it without breaking this. Also, you can't really override it in the extra config include because it is designed to stop immediately on URI starting with /progress, and its location is above the optional include, so it will never hit your override.

Thanks omega8cc, I figured it

Thanks omega8cc, I figured it would have been something like that, but it's great to hear for certain. Is there a list of all of the url path starting strings that should be avoided?

It is the only strict

It is the only strict exception/reserved URI. There is also one soft-reserved ^/hosting URI, as listed below:

^/progress (used by nginx upload progress - can't be used for anything else)
^/hosting (used by Aegir frontend and never cached - but can be used anyway)
