Hello everybody

after upgrade my server:
8 vCPU Cores to 10 vCPU Cores
30 GB RAM to 60 GB RAM
everything is fine
 
after I thought of upgrading bbb from bbb 2.5.8 to 2.5.11 using script   bbb-install-2.5.sh
nginx won't start

nginx -t

nginx: the configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf syntax is ok
nginx: [emerg] zero size shared memory zone "ws_zone"
nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test failed

does the upgrade have a relation with the server configuration?
how i can solve this problem?

How did your infrastructure add cores and memory to the VM?  Did you do a hard reboot after of server after?

 

Looking thru nginx

 

root@play:/etc/nginx/conf.d# cat html5-conn-limit.conf

limit_conn_zone $uri zone=ws_zone:5m;

 

I see ws_zone in this config file.   Not sure what yours has.

the server migration was done from the contabo site panel I went from Cloud VPS L server to Cloud VPS XL
After that I restarted the server and everything is working fine.
the problem is when i upgraded from bbb

in the directory /etc/nginx/conf.d I have only these two files bbb-html5-loadbalancer.conf bbb-html5-loadbalancer.conf.dpkg-new

I would compare the 2, and mv the dpkg one, and then do a nginx -t to see.

Here is the result
nginx -t
nginx: [emerg] open() "/etc/nginx/nginx.conf" failed (2: No such file or directory)

nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test failed

Quickest approach may be to build a new 2.5.11 from scratch,  fully test it out, and move the recordings to the new server
