i am using cpanel with nginx proxy, and i get the following warning when restarting nginx
nginx[3271513]: nginx: [warn] could not build optimal server_names_hash, you should increase either server_names_hash_max_size: 1024 or server_names_hash_bucket_size: 128; ignoring server_names_hash_bucket_size

then i change server_names_hash_max_size to 16386, but after several time, the value back to 1024

whats wrong about it

Hey there! When you edit the configuration file, are you changing /etc/nginx/conf.d/ea-nginx.conf as outlined here?

Hello,

Same problem to me after making the changes i still get

nginx: [warn] could not build optimal server_names_hash, you should increase either server_names_hash_max_size: 1024 or server_names_hash_bucket_size: 256; ignoring server_names_hash_bucket_size

I had to increase this to

server_names_hash_max_size 2048;
server_names_hash_bucket_size 512;

after all ok

nginx: the configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf syntax is ok
nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test is successful

I dont know if its to high or not.
