There is the client.

There is the nginx server, that the client talks to.

There is the upstream back-end server, that nginx talks to.

Are you reporting that the content of the client-file upload.txt is not
saved on the nginx server that is localhost, in a numbered file below
your client_body_temp_path?

Or are you reporting that the content of the client-file upload.txt is
not transferred to the upstream back-end server?

There is more than one server involved. Please be very clear which one
you are referring to, when you refer to any.

It works for me.

Perhaps I have a different idea of what "works" mean.
