If you defined 'location /ajax' as given above, the issue probably is with your javascript. Here's my Ajax javascript code that submits the form:

var unique_id = generate_guid(); // you can find javascript GUID library on the Net
Ext.Ajax.request({
    url: '/ajax/files',
    params: {'X-Progress-ID':upload_id}, // this is important
    success: function(r) { alert('saved') }
});

The '/ajax/files' simply maps to a controller which retrieves file submitted normally - in a 'param'. Nothing special goes on here.

When i define location /ajax it doesn’t send upload progress to client, and if i define location / it doesn’t want to display root index file but upload progress is working. What’s the problem and could you explain your /ajax backend more?
