How do I allow a PUT file request on Nginx server?

by

To add HTTP and WebDAV methods like PUT, DELETE, MKCOL, COPY and MOVE you need to compile nginx with HttpDavModule (./configure --with-http_dav_module). Check nginx -V first, maybe you already have the HttpDavModule (I installed nginx from the Debian repository and I already have the module).

Then change your nginx-config like that:

location / {
    root     /var/www;
    dav_methods  PUT;
}

You can get more info on the nginx docs entry for the HttpDavModule.
