memcached problems...

[Juergen Gotteswinter]

Hallo folks again,

i try to configure nginx to deliver swf files etc, and wanted to cache 
them within memcached. but until now i didnt have much success with that.
what i already did:

include/excluded parts of the config (flv part, swf part & php part) and 
tested them one by one. no change... but if i try to open a sfv file via 
browser i see that nginx communicates with memcached and this error 
messages appears in the nginx error log (without the memcached part in 
the config i get the file as download, like expected)

2009/08/31 18:34:40 [info] 23808#0: *1 key: 
"/files/_somewhere/xxx/xxxx.flv" was not found by memcached while 
reading response header from upstream, client: 62.
116.129.3, server: media, request: "GET /files/_somewhere/xxx/xxxx.flv 
HTTP/1.1", upstream: "memcached://127.0.0.1:11211", host: "ftp.xxx.org:8
1"

it seems that nginx looks in memcached for the file, but it has not yet 
read from the disk so nginx cant find it inside memcached and throws me 
a 404


heres my nginx.conf



http {
     include       /etc/nginx/mime.types;
     default_type  application/octet-stream;

                       '"$http_user_agent" "$http_x_forwarded_for"';
