When caching is enabled, nginx will ignore connection close by the client regardless of the proxy_ignore_client_abort value, much like with "proxy_ignore_client_abort on". Additionally, it will ignore errors when sending the response to the client.

Yes, with "proxy_ignore_client_abort on;" (and assuming proxy_store/proxy_cache is not enabled). > In the case of a range request, nginx will send the response > once the requested range is available, and thus before the > resource is completely downloaded. > Therefore, this would imply that the resource will not be > cached, regardless of the value of the proxy_ignore_client_abort > directive. > https://forum.nginx.org/read.php?2,253026,253029#msg-253029 You seems to assume that sending the range once it is available implies that nginx will fail to send the response. This is not true - the range filter simply skips unneeded data, and does not generate any errors. Either way, this is completely unrelated to caching - which explicitly ignores any errors even if they happen. -- Maxim Dounin http://mdounin.ru/ _______________________________________________ nginx mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.nginx.org/mailman/listinfo/nginx
