Authenticated users getting cached pages

[addisj]

My apologies if this is the wrong place for this issue, but using centos5.6+nginx0.8.4+php-fpm+drupal7+boost with the drupal_boost config, authenticated users are being served the cached versions of the page.

The only modification I have made to the stock config is applying this patch [https://github.com//issues/14] to the beginning of map_cache.conf to allow caching of the homepage.

I have also read through this discussion [http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/3302927] and tried the suggestions in the 2nd post, but it made no difference.

If it helps the available cookies are:
has_js=1; __utma=16729588.1676405263.1325874996.1325874996.1325874996.1; __utmb=16729588.11.10.1325874996; __utmc=16729588; __utmz=16729588.1325874996.1.1.utmcsr=(direct)|utmccn=(direct)|utmcmd=(none); SESS0b787746165e40414fa69ee6aa29f572=vCI9hDndfAoEjLj7xs0KI5H0i2u_OvrzpQJJlDJOBRo; DRUPAL_UID=1; Drupal.toolbar.collapsed=0

Thanks for any help.

Hello,

Can you please add the following code to your config at the server level:

sub_filter '</html>' "<p>no_cookie: $no_cookie</p></html>";

and check the value printed? It should be 1 for authenticated users. Note that you must have the http sub module compiled in. Check nginx -V for --with-http_sub_module.

Thanks,

[addisj]

Thanks for the reply perusio! I do have the http_sub module compiled in.

I'm assuming you meant to output the $no_cache variable, there was an error trying to use $no_cookie. I also included the $http_cookie variable for reference.

no_cache: 0
http_cookie: has_js=1; __utma=16729588.1494121925.1325947904.1325947904.1325947904.1; __utmb=16729588.8.10.1325947904; __utmc=16729588; __utmz=16729588.1325947904.1.1.utmcsr=(direct)|utmccn=(direct)|utmcmd=(none); SESS0b787746165e40414fa69ee6aa29f572=KxMtDpkpniNqnirM54dnMY48gNwLvXC06RRgkstQxfI; DRUPAL_UID=1; Drupal.toolbar.collapsed=0

And here is my map_cache.conf:

map $request_method $no_cache {
default 0;
POST 1;
}

map $http_cookie $no_cache {
default 0;
~SESS 1;
}

map $request_uri $is_index {
default 0;
/index.php 1;
/ 1;
}

The only way I could get this to work was to add a check for the SESS cookie after the if($no_cache) line.

if ($no_cache) {
return 418; # I'm a teapot/I can't get no cachifaction
}
// Added
if ( $http_cookie ~ "SESS" ) {
rewrite ^/(.+)$ /index.php?q=$1 last;
}

Hmm, that's strange. Apparently your map is not setting $no_cookie as it should. If this is D7 there's no need for a rewrite. I'm going to update the config tomorrow, so I'll test Boost again on D7. In the meantime replace your rewrite with:

if ($http_cookie ~ SESS) {
   return 418;
}  

[addisj]

Ok thanks.

I replaced the rewrite with 'return 418;' and all pages are working correctly except for the homepage, which returns a blank white screen.

I'll wait to see what you find while testing.

[perusio]

I've pushed a new config and I tested the frontpage cache. Try it out and report back.

[addisj]

The new config works great, thanks!

I'm still experiencing the map $http_cookie $no_cache bug from above, but now adding:

if ($http_cookie ~ SESS) {
return 418;
}

as you suggested earlier works perfectly.

Thanks again!

That's strange. It should work. But hey it works now: the frontal page caching. That's good.
