nginx blocks inherit headers set in blocks above them UNLESS the current level also sets headers[0]. This was causing PHP requests to not have STS headers because of the FastCGI cache header which is set in that block. [0] http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_headers_module.html Fixes GitHub #7.

Ansible Playbook
Ansible playbook for base and initial configuration of web server hosting my personal websites. After successful execution of this playbook, however, there is still some manual work to import databases, copy site content, etc.
Assumptions
Before you can run this, a few things are assumed:
- You have a clean, minimal Ubuntu 14.04 host up and running
- You have a user account with password-less SSH access to the machine
- You have sudo privileges on the remote host
- You have created a
hostsfile with something like:
[web]
web01
Use
Once you've satisfied the the above assumptions, you can execute:
ansible-playbook web.yml -i hosts -K
Testing in a VM (KVM)
A simple way to test locally in a virtual machine using libvirt + KVM:
sudo virt-install -n web01 -r 1024 --vcpus 2 -l http://ubuntu.mirror.ac.ke/ubuntu/dists/trusty/main/installer-amd64/ --os-type=linux --os-variant=ubuntusaucy --disk /home/aorth/software/vms/web01.qcow2,device=disk,bus=virtio,format=qcow2,size=40 --vnc --cpuset=1,2 -x "auto=true priority=critical url=http://blah.com/~aorth/preseed/public/ubuntu-14.04.cfg"
This boots from a network Ubuntu mirror, then uses a preseed to automate the OS installation.
Testing in Vagrant
Not as simple as on GNU/Linux with KVM, but still easy:
vagrant init ubuntu/trusty64
Then uncomment the following line in your Vagrantfile:
# Create a public network, which generally matched to bridged network.
# Bridged networks make the machine appear as another physical device on
# your network.
config.vm.network "public_network"
And finally, bring the machine up:
vagrant up
