This differs from local container runs where responses are complete. The truncation typically coincides with Azure's load balancer in front of your container app. Logs might show clean 200 responses for requests but also info-level messages like client closed connection while waiting for request, often caused by health probes or load balancer behavior. Root Cause: Missing Upstream Load Balancer Configuration in nginx Azure Container Apps load balance requests, but your nginx needs awareness of this setup. By default, if nginx is configured to proxy requests to a single backend without load balancing, it might mishandle connections or drop responses unexpectedly. The core issue is that nginx is not configured with an upstream block listing backend servers considered as a pool for load balancing. Without this, it might cut connections early or drop parts of responses. The Solution: Define an upstream Block and Use It in fastcgi_pass Step 1: Define an upstream in the http block Specify your backend PHP servers within an upstream. For example: [[See Video to Reveal this Text or Code Snippet]] least_conn balances requests by the fewest connections. Replace ${MAUTIC_WEB_URL} with your actual backend server or service address. Step 2: Use the upstream in your server block Modify your PHP location block to use the upstream: [[See Video to Reveal this Text or Code Snippet]] This tells nginx to proxy PHP requests using the defined upstream pool, allowing proper connection reuse and load balancing compatible with Azure's environment. Additional Tips Make sure health probes or load balancer pings return HTTP 200 to prevent premature connection closure. Check fastcgi_buffers and timeout settings if issues persist. Use fastcgi_keep_conn on; to maintain persistent backend connections, improving stability. Summary When running nginx with PHP-FPM behind Azure Container Apps' load balancer, configure an upstream block representing your backend PHP servers and use it in the fastcgi_pass directive. This properly aligns nginx’s request handling with Azure’s load balancing model and prevents truncated page responses.
