I am troubleshooting the setup of Varnish 3.x on my Ubuntu server. I'm running Drupal 7 on two sites set up on the box, via named-based vhosts.
My site uses nginx, varnish, jboss. And some url will be cached by varnish, it depends a response header from jboss.
The first time, jboss tells varnish doesn't cache this url. Then the second request, jboss tells varnish to cache, but varnish won't cache it.
ApacheBooster is a integration of nginx and varnish, this Plugin will reduce the server load spike and memory usage. Also the plugin will provide the maximum performance of your websites.
Varnish
Varnish Cache is a web application accelerator also known as a caching HTTP reverse proxy. You install it in front of any server that speaks HTTP and configure it to cache the contents.
On Debian I have Varnish cache in front of apache and get 503 error when I try to get urls which are rarely fetched.
If you are new to Varnish, here is what Wikipedia says about ti:
Varnish is a transparent, hard, protective finish or film primarily used in wood finishing but also for other materials. Varnish is traditionally a combination of a drying oil, a resin, and a thinner or solvent.
Putting Varnish In Front Of Apache On Ubuntu/Debian
Varnish is an open source "web accelerator" which you can use to
speed up your website. It can cache certain static elements, such as images or javascript
but you can also use it for other purposes such as Loadbalancing or some
additional security.
I have the following situation:
On my site, javascript sets a cookie that contains relevant information for generating the markup.
I therefore want Varnish to cache each page separately for each value of said cookie.
All the documentation I have found says that Varnish will not cache if any cookie is present, and explains how to remove cookies in Varnish preprocessing.
This is obviously not wh
i want to increase the log limit of the varnish cache server , as i see when i write the log to a file it only give me about 13k of requests , i want to increase it to something like 1 million for a high traffic site , so i can save the log every 10 mins .
i know varnish can run as Demon and write the logs on run time , but i don't need this
so is there anyway to increase the varnish log limit
Currently I migrating my environment with Varnish + Apache + mod_php to
Varnish + Nginx + php-fpm.
When i set up new env Nginx + Varnish + php_fpm, ESI not work's
varnish.cfg ESI
vcl_fetch sub {
set beresp.do_esi = true;
set beresp.ttl = 5s;
}
Do I need to run additional ESI module in nginx?
