| 8 | * This configuration has been contributed by an XWiki user and needs to be verified. | ||
| 9 | {{/warning}} | ||
| 10 | |||
| 11 | Example running XWiki on the Glassfish 2 Application Server: | ||
| 12 | |||
| 13 | * NginX listens on ##<domain>:80## and redirects HTTP queries to ##<domain>:8080## and thus NginX is referred to as "frontend" and Glassfish as "backend". | ||
| 14 | * Glassfish is installed in the ##/user/local/glassfish/glassfish## folder. | ||
| 15 | |||
| 16 | For more information you can consult the [[NginX manual>>http://wiki.nginx.org/Main]]. | ||
| 17 | |||
| 18 | NginX configuration example with ##<domain>## being ##vostrets.ru## (##/etc/nginx.conf##): | ||

| 112 | == Request Entity Too Large == | ||
| 113 | |||
| 114 | If you find the following message in your logs: {{code}}Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 413 (Request Entity Too Large){{/code}} then you might want to try to [[increase the request body size>>http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_core_module.html#client_max_body_size]] since it seems nginx does not allow request bodies larger than 1MB by default. |
