##Configure Nginx

For your blog to be seen by the world, you need a server to dispatch request to rails. In this tutorial, Nginx will be the server used. You will have to edit /etc/nginx/nginx.conf to have the following settings.

worker_processes 1;

events { worker_connections 1024; }

http { include mime.types; default_type application/octet-stream; server_names_hash_bucket_size 64;

sendfile        on;

keepalive_timeout  65;

upstream rails {
     server 127.0.0.1:3000 fail_timeout=0;
}

server {
    listen  80;
    rewrite ^(.*) http://yourblogdomain.com$1 permanent;
}

server {
    listen       80;
    server_name  yourblogdomain.com;

    location / {
            root            /srv/http/ecrire/public;
            proxy_set_header    X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
            proxy_set_header Host   $http_host;
            proxy_redirect      off;
            proxy_pass      http://rails;
    }

    location ~ ^/(assets)/  {
            root /srv/http/ecrire/public;
            gzip_static on; # to serve pre-gzipped version
            expires max;
            add_header Cache-Control public;
    }
}

} You will have to replace yourblogdomain.com with your domain name. You will have to restart nginx to make the changes effective.

sudo service nginx restart

sudo chkconfig --add nginx sudo chkconfig --levels 235 nginx on
