What are the values of the various proxy_ settings?

This is not normal. Please compile nginx with --with-debug, activate the
error log in debug mode, then try to upload a file and finally create an
issue here, containing the nginx version, the upload progress version
and all other information that would make sense:
http://github.com/masterzen/nginx-upload-progress-module/issues

And send me privately the full compressed debug log, I will analyze it
to see what the issue can be.
