WebSocket connection failed with nginx, nodejs and socket.io

26.2k views Asked by At

I try to setup nodejs with nginx. But when the client try to connect it fails with...

WebSocket connection to 'ws://www.mydomain.com/socket.io/1/websocket/KUv5G...' failed: Error during WebSocket handshake: 'Connection' header value is not 'Upgrade': keep-alive socket.io.js:2371

So how to enable websocket comunication?

my current nginx config

  upstream mynodejsapp {

    ip_hash;
    keepalive 512;

first,upgrade your nginx server to 1.3 or higher.

server {

    server_name jn.whattoc.com;

    location / {
      proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
      proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
      proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
      proxy_set_header X-NginX-Proxy true;

      proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:4050/;
      proxy_redirect off;

              proxy_http_version 1.1;
