Magento 1.9.3.1 on CentOS7 + Nginx 1.11.8 - Category save problem

[vdheuvel]

The Category page manager seems to be forever in a loop after trying to save a changed category. I use CentOS7 with Nginx 1.11.8 (latest stable) and here is my config ....

My nginx.conf

#user  nginx;
# The number of worker processes is changed automatically by CustomBuild, according to the number of CPU cores, if it's set to "1"
worker_processes  4;
pid /var/run/nginx.pid;

#error_log  logs/error.log;
#error_log  logs/error.log  notice;
#error_log  logs/error.log  info;

events {    include /etc/nginx/nginx-events.conf;
}

http {

    ##
    # Basic Settings
    ##    
    include /etc/nginx/mime.types;
    map $scheme $fastcgi_https { ## Detect when HTTPS is used
        default off;
        https on;
    }

    # For user configurations not maintained by DirectAdmin. Empty by default.    include /etc/nginx/nginx-includes.conf;

    # Supplemental configuration    
    include /etc/nginx/nginx-modsecurity-enable.conf;
    include /etc/nginx/nginx-defaults.conf;
    include /etc/nginx/nginx-gzip.conf;
    include /etc/nginx/nginx-proxy.conf;
    include /etc/nginx/directadmin-ips.conf;
    include /etc/nginx/directadmin-settings.conf;
    include /etc/nginx/nginx-vhosts.conf;
    include /etc/nginx/directadmin-vhosts.conf;
    include /etc/nginx/conf.d/*.conf;
}

And my /conf.d/magento.conf

server {
    listen 80 default;
    # server_name magento.lan www.magento.lan; # like ServerName in Apache
    # root /var/www/magento; # document root, path to directory with files
    # index index.html index.php;
    autoindex off; # we don’t want users to see files in directories
    location ~ (^/(app/\|includes/\|lib/\|/pkginfo/\|var/\|report/config.xml)\|/\.svn/\|/\.git/\|/.hta.+) {
        deny all; #ensure sensitive files are not accessible
    }
    location / {
        try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args; # make index.php handle requests for /
        access_log off; # do not log access to static files
        expires max; # cache static files aggressively
    }

    location \~\.php$ {
        try_files $uri =404; # if reference to php executable is invalid return 404
        expires off; # no need to cache php executable files
        fastcgi_read_timeout 600;
        fastcgi_keep_conn on; # use persistent connects to backend
        include fastcgi_params;
        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root${fastcgi_script_name};
        fastcgi_param MAGE_RUN_CODE default; # Store code is defined in administration > Configuration > Manage Stores
        fastcgi_param MAGE_RUN_TYPE store;
    }
    location ~ .php/ {   ## This was apparently the solution due to others but not for me
        rewrite ^(.*.php)/ $1 last;
    }
}

I would really appreciate if one of the nginx/centos gurus can help me get rid of this annoying problem because I do not get it and my knowledge of nginx is too limited.

Let me know if any other files are needed or a login to ssh or anything.

Thanks in advance.

can not read your nginx config.

Indeed, this forum platform is not really good at displaying code unofrtunately.

I will try to clean it up a bit more so it displays correctly. I tried a clean up, hope this helps a bit.

More info: if the page is stuck in reload loop, then doing a browser refresh (F5 in chrome or CTRL-R in Firefox) unlocks the loop. Also doing the category edit on a mobile phone, doesn show this issue.

Weird or what ?

P.S. for a better view of the files go here: http://magento.stackexchange.com/questions/155868/category-page-manager-stuck-in-reload-centos7-ngin...

Nobody ever heard about this ? And on mobile phone it works ???

I've solved it myself. I was using Cloudflare for js/css/html minifyer and rocketscripting. This was the originele of all the troubles.

Luckily this weird problem is gone now. Hope this might help somebody else too.
