Wordpress Uses Nginx and Litespeed
I was reading some articles on Nginx today and a few other sites who didn’t research it much made me a little frustrated. Some other blogs say Wordpress uses Nginx and has done away with Litespeed. I have confirmed it that Wordpress.com is still using Litespeed, but with Nginx as a front end proxy (what Zotag is doing now).
First of all, the server headers on Wordpress.com read as “nginx”. So you other bloggers out there who made up stories why they switched to Nginx are wrong…. I actually found it really amusing some of the detailed stories that were made up about why they switched. Anyways, I set a bad request to the server and got an error from the Litespeed server. Here’s what I sent to the server: http://wordpress.com/index.php%00.txt
So anyways, I just wanted to prove a point.
Do your homework newbies (lol)
