Disqus comments, 3rd edition, 2 million page views

By -
Just a quick update that most likely no one will read, but here it is anyway:
  • I have switched comment systems, we're now with Disqus. Blogger did a terrible job at preventing spam so I'm hoping I'll get luckier with Disqus. I removed about 2000 spam comments so far.
  • Nginx HTTP Server, 3rd edition is coming up soon! The first draft is complete. After checking out user reviews online we decided that this edition should focus on examples and case studies, rather than standing for the ultimate directive reference or index. The first edition from 2009/2010 was meant as an exhaustive reference that people could use at all times, but several readers complained that the information was readily available online. We never pretended otherwise but we tried to make the documentation in the book more accessible and legible. Hopefully this new edition will prove satisfying to all.
  • 2 million page views on the blog - we're almost there! In a couple of days the amazing milestone of 2,000,000 page views will be reached, I never thought it would go this far when I started the blog a few years back. I haven't posted much lately but that's because I have been busy working on all sorts of projects. I try to post at least 8 to 10 times a year.
Thanks for visiting! Clement

Nginx error 413: Request entity too large Quick Fix

By -
A quick article today about a common error people encounter with Nginx: the infamous 413 Request Entity Too Large HTTP error. I had the problem myself just yesterday on one of my newly configured servers, so I thought I'd make a blog post about it to make sure I don't forget this next time. Error 413: what does it mean? This error shows up when a visitor sends too much data in the HTTP request. This is normally caused by: • an overy large file being uploaded by the visitor • more generally too much POST data being sent by the client The fix is as simple as setting a directive in your Nginx configuration, read on below. How to fix it? client_max_body_size To fix this, you need to increase the value of the client_max_body_size directive. This directive defines the maximum amount of data Nginx will accept in an HTTP request. By default this value is set to 1 megabyte, meaning if you attempt to upload a file larger than 1 megabyte you'll be getting an  Error ...

Dealing with Nginx 400 Bad Request HTTP errors

By -
Today I'll write about something I experienced personally, on my websites. Some visitors reported that they were getting a "400 Bad Request" Nginx error randomly when visiting pages. And when they start getting that error, they can't access the site anymore: it'll output the same error no matter the page, until you "clear your cache and cookies". The error is easily understandable and is likely to be caused by... too much cookie data. Every time a visitor loads *any* page/content/file of your website, it sends the cookie data to the server. Cookie data is sent under the form of 1 header line starting with "Cookie: ". Basically, Nginx by default is configured to accept header lines of a maximum size of 4 kilobytes. When a line in the headers exceeds 4 kilobytes, Nginx returns the '400 Bad Request' error. Cookie data sometimes gets big, so it causes the error. It particularly happens on forums like vBulletin, Invision and others...

Affiliate module for Interspire Shopping Cart

Hello, I have already implemented this module on two shops rather successfully. The concept is quite simple: websites that want to get rewarded through affiliation must link to your website using an identifier in the URL. If your website is http://website.com/, then your links must be of the form http://website.com/?ref=123 where 123 is the affiliate ID. when a visitor clicks the link, the affiliate ID will be placed in a cookie that will expire after 15 days (this can be configured) when the visitor purchases an item: if the affiliate ID cookie is still enabled, the affiliate will be credited of a certain amount, it can be a share of the sale or a fixed amount. affiliate accounts are simple customer accounts, there is no modification to make regarding accounts. When a sale is made, they receive store credit. They can either spend the store credit to purchase items on the store, or they can manually request for a withdrawal (managing withdrawals is up to you). I will detail the i...
