The client_body_buffer_size is a directive, but not a variable.
A client body size is controlled by two directives: client_max_body_size
(a total max size) and client_body_buffer_size (up to this size nginx
will not store the body in temporary file). Could you log in access_log
"$http_content_length" to see the body length ?
