AI-generated summary

The issue of receiving a "504 Gateway Time-out" error when uploading files through Nginx can be resolved by adjusting timeout settings. You can modify three default parameters to 240 seconds each: `proxy_connect_timeout`, `proxy_send_timeout`, and `proxy_read_timeout`. Alternatively, you can configure four parameters, including `send_timeout`, all set to 240 seconds, following a method from Stack Overflow.

When uploading files through the nginx reverse proxy, it prompts "504 Gateway Time-out".

Solution#

Since I generated the configuration through nginxconfig.io, I only need to modify the default three parameters without adding any new parameters:

proxy_connect_timeout              240s;
proxy_send_timeout                 240s;
proxy_read_timeout                 240s;

Alternatively, you can also configure the timeout for four parameters completely according to stackoverflow:

proxy_connect_timeout       240;
proxy_send_timeout          240;
proxy_read_timeout          240;
send_timeout                240;
