FAQ
How do I restore NGINX defaults?
Download the file, back up the current one in /etc/nginx/mime.types, replace it, then reload or restart NGINX.
Is mime.types safe for production?
It is the vendor default for CentOS Stream 9. Treat it as a baseline and review security and performance settings before production use.
How does this differ from other OS versions?
Defaults vary by distro and version. This copy matches CentOS Stream 9.
Can I use this for NGINX troubleshooting?
Yes. Diff it against yours to find drift, then restore only the sections you need.
