Anyone use maxcdn?

[Tempest]

Has anyone here set up their xenForo forum to utilize maxcdn? I've had a go at it and so have my other staff members and we can't figure out why it's just not working. There's no integration plug-in for xenForo right now but it's a CDN, it shouldn't be hard to set up manually.

Edit: Okay so I've got the CNAMEs and what not right. A friend tells me I need to edit each .css file and the urls in it for the styles. What's left me confused is I have no idea exactly what to edit. I haven't got a clue with these files.

Clean all caches...

Looking in Safari activity, all data are grabbed correctly. Only this don't found
http://localhost/?record&key=556b35...6c323837393133704f4531&1319782595638&serve_js

Ok only this JS had problems
title_prefix.js
but I don't understand the issue...

 

[giorgino]

in js/xenforo there isn't the minified version of title_prefix.js...

When I enable the CDN for the javascript path, flash uploading does not work. It works again after I disabled it.

Also the CDN datapath would prevent people from uploading their avatar as it will go back to the cached version. Disable the datapath solves it.

So right now, all CDN are disabled until we can find out more problems/solutions.

For me it's impossible to move threads...

[giorgino]

Seen. Thank you Andy...

I could not get attachments to work with MaxCDN. My attachments has this url structure: http://myxenforo.com/attachments. It does not have the same structure as in #8 post (robdog), which is: http://myxenforo.com/data/attachments

Working perfectly now.

Is a CDN really worth getting or more of a hassle? What about cloudflare? There was a thread on here about them and feedback has been postive. I have a VPS, just wondering if I should plan for a CDN or not bother.

Working perfectly now.

How? With 1.1 final update?

I am using the latest version (1.1 release). I am not exactly sure why. I tried using CDN again after the upgrade and it is working now.

Only attachment thumbnails should be currently working with the default CDN setup explained in this thread. Full size attachments still are served from your server.

I have all my attachments accessible to guests and would like to serve full size attachments from CDN - has anyone successfully done this ?

I've got a weird problem - when I enable MaxCDN in my config file, the server spits out 500 errors. I can access various files at http://cdn.mysite.com/data/whateverfiles, but as soon as I add the 2 lines into my config.php file everything goes boom.

Ideas?

Ideas?

You Tried all of this ?
Sounds like robdog got it working.

Yep, I just swapped around some settings from when I was using it with vB and Drupal. I'll double check my settings, but things work fine when I manually pull up a file.

 

[robdog]

Maybe post the lines in your config file so we can see what it looks like?

Also, if it is a new MaxCDN account, I would email them to make sure everything is working properly. Sometimes, you need them to look at your account to make sure it got setup properly.

Here is what I have:

$config['externalDataUrl'] = ‘http://cdn.priuschat.com/data’;
$config['javaScriptUrl'] = ‘http://cdn.priuschat.com/js’;

I've been using MaxCDN for a little over a year. I'm going to try and setup a new Pull Zone to see if that for some reason fixes it.

 

[robdog]

Yeah that seems right. Can you post some screen shots of the pull zone you are setting up at MaxCDN?
