Could not create paste: Invalid data.

[pf0]

Did you use the FAQ section?

• [ x] Yes, I have read the FAQ and I found no solution/answer there.

Privatebin displays 'Could not create paste: Invalid data' when submitting a paste. Sadly, I did not find any other information from browser, nginx or php-fpm logs.

Steps to reproduce

I am running privatebin behind nginx with the following nginx.conf: ` server { listen 443 ssl; server_name bin.rock.home.arpa; include /usr/local/etc/nginx/mime.types;

            ssl_certificate      /etc/ssl/127.0.0.1.crt;
            ssl_certificate_key  /etc/ssl/private/127.0.0.1.key;

            ssl_session_cache    shared:SSL:1m;
            ssl_session_timeout  5m;

            ssl_ciphers  HIGH:!aNULL:!MD5;
            ssl_prefer_server_ciphers  on;

            root /usr/local/www/privatebin;

            index index.php;
            location / {
                    try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
            }
            location  ~ \.php$ {
                    fastcgi_param REQUEST_METHOD $request_method;
                    fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
                    # https://easyengine.io/tutorials/nginx/forwarding-visitors-real-ip/
                    fastcgi_param REMOTE_ADDR $http_x_real_ip;
                    fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php-fpm.sock;
            }

`

What happens

Paste is not created and a error message is displayed instead.

What should happen

The example paste should be created and a corresponding link should be provided.

Invalid data is the error sent by the server when it can't validate the JSON payload, for example the message could have gotten truncated along the way and the server only receives an incomplete JSON. Check your webserver and php-fpm configuration for any kind of size limit that might cut off the message. Also try of smaller messages work. Check for any webserver plugins or CDNs that might mess with the payload in any way.

Thank you for the fast response! After adding include /usr/local/etc/nginx/fastcgi_params; inside the php location everything works fine. I assume it had something to do with the missing CONTENT_LENGTH fastcgi_param.
