2.4.1.1.4. Static files

Hosting uses a combination of nginx and Apache servers. The nginx server processes requests for static content and redirects requests for dynamic content to the Apache server. Instead of Apache, OpenLiteSpeed or PHP-FPM can be used.

The extensions of static files that nginx should process are specified in the "Site settings" section in the "Static files" field:

If you want certain static files to be processed by directives from .htaccess or if these files should not be served directly but, for example, generated by site scripts, you need to delete the extensions of these files from the list of static files so that requests reach the Apache server. The changes will take effect within approximately 10-15 minutes.

Keep in mind that serving static files with Apache instead of nginx can negatively impact the overall load on the web server created by the hosting account. Since nginx is faster, it is recommended that static files be served by it rather than the slower Apache server.
