Thank you. I reviewed my configuration and made some tweaks, but I'm
still having trouble. Actually I haven't seen the 304 Not Modified
again, but now I am getting a blank response body for the cached page ("/").
For example:
GET / HTTP/1.0
User-Agent: Pingdom.com_bot_version_1.4_(http://www.pingdom.com/)
Host: loco2.com
200 OK
Cache-Control: max-age=600, public
Content-Encoding: gzip
Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8
Date: Fri, 10 Jan 2014 11:49:44 GMT
ETag: "8a8ca149d65dd1343c60366876821659"
Server: nginx/1.4.4
Status: 200 OK
Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=31536000
Vary: Accept-Encoding
X-Cache-Status: HIT
X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff
X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN
X-Request-Id: 0d85f7a2-cdbf-4288-a62d-05628abefdba
X-UA-Compatible: chrome=1
X-XSS-Protection: 1; mode=block
Connection: Close
[empty response]
Do you know of any reasons why the response might be blank? I copied the
cache file so I could review it, and I checked that the X-Request-Id
matches so it's definitely the same entry. The cache file *does* contain
the response body - in gzip form. I am using "gzip off" for this
location block, so I don't think nginx is interfering there. I'm at a
complete loss about why this is happening, any ideas you have would be
much appreciated.
Thanks,
Jon
