NGINX Leverage browser caching

Hi All,

I'm running NGINX + Apache and trying to get leverage browser caching working.
Somehow the guides I found just don't do what they are supposed to do

Could anyone explain me a bit?

Regards!

Do you need it to be in nginx or can you use apache since you are running nginx + apache? I use mine in a .htaccess file.

Code:

 # Time cheat sheet in seconds
# A86400 = 1 day
# A172800 = 2 days
# A2419200 = 1 month
# A4838400 = 2 months
# A29030400 = 1 year
# Remove the ETag (entity tag) response header field
# This is most likely the optimum choice to use.
Header unset ETag
FileETag none

<IfModule mod_expires.c>
ExpiresActive on
# ExpiresByType overrides the ExpiresDefault...
# cache expiration time of 2 days|A172800.
ExpiresDefault A172800

Hello,

NGINX does not support .htaccess and Apache's mod_expires instructions.

Check this: https://nginx.ru/en/docs/http/ngx_ht...rs_module.html

Can you please explain a little more ? What I am using passes all browser cache tests I have found.

Is it the mod_headers part ?

I'm confused !
