WebAPI configuration after 3CX Update (Debian)

Created by Anton Zykov, Modified on Thu, 13 Mar at 4:13 PM by Oleg Agapov

After 3CX update process, you should run a special script, that set up a new configuration file for nginx.

Script is available here

Common usage method:

wget https://download.creomate.com/update.sh -P /var/www/webapi/
wget https://download.creomate.com/install_update_cron.sh
sudo bash /var/www/webapi/update.sh
sudo bash install_update_cron.sh

This scripts will update nginx configuration, and set up a CRON job for a regular configuration check and update.

-----------------

Or you may do it manually

After each 3CX update, you need to edit the nginx.conf file.

nano /var/lib/3cxpbx/Bin/nginx/conf/nginx.conf

After:

client_max_body_size 300m;

root "C:/ProgramData/3CX/Data/Http/wwwroot";

Add

location ~ ^/webapi/?(.*) 
{
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection $connection_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8081/webapi/$1$is_args$args;
proxy_buffering off;
}

Restart nginx Service (3CX Phone System Nginx Webserver)

systemctl restart nginx
