OwnCloud with Nginx

OwnCloud is a neat gadget for putting your files up somewhere and getting them back in a nicer interface than the usual directory index + it has document versioning and a bunch of other features. This post is basically just a huge nginx configuration file which shows the config that works for me using a self-signed certificate.

And here she is:

server {
listen 80;
server_name thy.server.com;
rewrite ^ https://$server_name$request_uri? permanent;  # enforce https
}

server {
listen 443 ssl;
server_name thy.server.com;

ssl_certificate /etc/nginx/ssl/host.cert;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/nginx/ssl/host.key;

access_log /var/log/nginx/owncloud-access.log main;
error_log /var/log/nginx/owncloud-error.log info;

root /var/www/owncloud;

client_max_body_size 20G; # set max upload size, remember to update php.ini as well
fastcgi_buffers 64 4K;
