AWS Elastic Beanstalk custom nginx .conf file in the .platform hooks is not created when zip file is-CodePudding

I am deploying a Node JS/ Express JS application to AWS Elastic Beanstalk environment. I am creating custom nginx config file to change a setting. To do that I created the following file.

{project_root_directory}/.platform/nginx/conf.d/elasticbeanstalk/mynginx.conf

server {
    client_max_body_size 512M;
}

Then to deploy the application as usual, I zip my project and upload the zip in the AWS console. After the environment is updated, I checked the file on the server and it is not there.

Why the file is not there and how can I fix it, please?

The followings are the details.

Image is Amazon Linux 2 AMI.

I created a .ebextensions folder right inside the root folder with the following files

00-files.config

files:
    "/etc/nginx/conf.d/mynginx.conf" :
        mode: "000755"
        owner: root
        group: root
        content: |
           client_max_body_size 512M;

01-nodecommand.config

option_settings:
  - namespace: aws:elasticbeanstalk:container:nodejs
    option_name: NodeCommand
    value: "npm start"

02-migrationcommand.config

option_settings:
  - namespace: aws:elasticbeanstalk:container:nodejs
    option_name: MigrationCommand
    value: "npx sequelize-cli db:migrate"

Then again I created .platform/nginx/conf.d/mynginx.config file right inside the root folder with the following content.

server {
    client_max_body_size 512M;
}

So I have the project structure like this.

Then I zip the project. Then login to the AWS console and go to the Beanstalk console and upload the zip file there.

CodePudding user response：

Assuming that you are using Amazon Linux 2 EB platform, the correct folder should be:

{project_root_directory}/.platform/nginx/conf.d/mynginx.conf

not

{project_root_directory}/.platform/nginx/conf.d/elasticbeanstalk/mynginx.conf

Update:

Your mynginx.conf should be:

client_max_body_size 512M;
