According to Varnish Processing States control after backend_error() should be passed to vcl_synth(), but in reality the error page you are seeing is delivered unconditionally in backend_error() of builtin.vcl. Either you customize your webpage there or you add sub vcl_backend_error { return(retry); } in your vcl to force the jump...

This is how I would do: Get managed nodes of the elb (describe-load-balancers) and pull the Instance IDs of those nodes Save above Instances IDs in an array Loop over the array of instance IDs and pull the Private Ip address of instances. Save these private IP addresses in another...
This is going to be a pretty long answer, because there's a fair bit to say regarding your question. First, some nits about the C code in your VCL: Implementing strtolower is probably unnecessary; the standard vmod has a std.tolower function. If you are running Varnish 3, you should use...
Forgot that, at some point, I had bound httpd to the localhost by putting Listen 127.0.0.1:8080 in httpd.conf. Changing this to Listen 8080 meant that going to www.myserver:8080/phpmyadmin now worked.

This did the trick... it's not perfect according to my own question though as it ignores ALL query params, not just utm ones. When I need to actually implement a non-utm value which changes the content I will need to revisit this regex: sub vcl_recv { set req.url = regsub(req.url,...

Before changes can affect you need to restart/reload your nginx, in CentOS it's done by running: /etc/init.d/nginx restart (If you are not root use sudo) You are requiring that all your included files will be suffixed with '.conf', please make sure your file has this extension.

This checks to see if the user has a cookie named one of those (each | is the regex OR operator, so it can match any one of those). If there is a cookie with that name, then we hash the value of the cookie so that user gets their...
I think Varnish by default does not cache pages with Cookies. Maybe that is your problem (it looks like you have a PHPSESSID and some other stuff)? See the Varnish documentation: https://www.varnish-cache.org/trac/wiki/VCLExampleCacheCookies Try configuring your webserver to not set any cookies, or configure Varnish to ignore them (note that that...

This is my solution, that worked for me. other answers will be welcome too! Just add proxy_set_header Host www.example.com; to location / { in nginx.

I also ran into this issue some time ago. I found the answer to this at: http://serverfault.com/questions/227742/prevent-port-change-on-redirect-in-nginx You can turn of the port forwarding for redirects in nginx by setting port_in_redirect off; ...
Yes you can. Not sure what you're doing, but you can either run two varnish processes, each on separate ports, or one varnish instance listening to two ports. Examples of each: varnishd -a 0.0.0.0:3000 -f /etc/varnish/default_1.vcl -i varnish_1 -n /var/lib/varnish/ubuntu1.dev/varnish_1 varnishd -a 0.0.0.0:3001 -f /etc/varnish/default_2.vcl -i varnish_2 -n /var/lib/varnish/ubuntu1.dev/varnish_2 The...

You are using Varnish 4.0.0, which needs updating from the 3.0 format your VCL code is based on. req.grace is gone (you usually don't need it) and vcl_fetch is now called vcl_backend_response. See the upgrade documentation: https://www.varnish-cache.org/docs/trunk/whats-new/upgrading.html...
Turns out it was the varnish backend, need to re-tool it to take bans rather than purges, need to get that working but ultimately my code is fine.

This could be done with check of Content-Length in backend answer, and if it larger than some size, then tag it with some mark and restart request transaction Example, files with Content-Length >=10,000,00 should be piped: sub vcl_fetch { .. if ( beresp.http.Content-Length ~ "[0-9]{8,}" ) { set req.http.x-pipe-mark =...
Just override vcl_hash to normalize the hostname: sub vcl_hash { hash_data(req.url); if (req.http.host == "api.example.com") { hash_data(req.http.host); } return (hash); } ...
The assignments you found are not to req.http - req.http.[name] is a way to access the request header [name]. Headers are strings, not booleans. You can still make this work with small changes, though: set req.http.x-is-static-resource = "true"; [...] if (req.http.x-is-static-resource) { [...] ...

To send purge request back to correct varnish server.

The easiest most efficient way to solve this is to create an ajax request that does just the logging part. That way you can still cache your whole page whereas you disable cache for the ajax request to enable it to log all users. The IP you would forward from...
The line would return a 403 if either: HTTP_CLIENT_IP header is present HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR header is present $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] is not one of '127.0.0.1', 'fe80::1', '::1' Probably you are setting the HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR header in varnish, or varnish is setting it for you, depending on the varnish version. Unset it or rewrite the...
sess_timeout is tuned to avoid keeping state around when it is not needed.

The answer is to use: if (req.request == "BAN") { if (req.http.X-Debug != "True") { error 405 "Not allowed."; } ban("obj.http.x-url ~ " + req.url); error 200 "ban added"; } Whilst this will return 200 regardless if the item in the cache exists or not, it does add the ban....

There's no support for exactly what you are asking for but as a workaround you can put tags in your headers as to what comments they are dependent on. For example sending a: x-depend-comments: 2578 2579 2580 And then at an update of a comment you can send a ban...
Well, I've just did some tests and Varnish does not replace the object cached.
Varnish doesn't have an admin area. The admin port is for the CLI varnishadm tool. It will normally pick up the port automatically. You can also use the admin port to connect to Varnish from custom tools and issue admin commands. Check out the docs for the varnishadm tool. Here's...

I came to the conclusion Varnish does some really weird things with its headers. I eventually setup OpenResty (nginx+lua) and used S3CMD to sync files whenever an URL is requested in a certain way, and used LUA to make a similar system to pre-signed URL's. This turned out to work...
Yes I think you are referring to req.backend/req.backend_hint in vcl_recv(), in Varnish 3 syntax: backend www { .host = "www.example.com"; .port = "http"; } sub vcl_recv { if (req.http.host ~ "(?i)^(www.)?example.com$") { set req.backend = www; } } And in Varnish 4 syntax: backend www { .host = "www.example.com"; .port...

You are looking for n_lru_nuked. If that is larger than zero then - to make space for new objects - Varnish had to remove old objects before their TTL expired. This is either bad cache design (when caching everything for 10 years) or simply there is not enough space.

The problem was (as Marcel Dumont suggested) related to the fact that Varnish was not configured to listen on port 8081. So we redirected the frontend client to connect on port 80 and relied on Varnish to pipe the information on through to the underlying websocket on port 8081.
