okay, so here’s the story.
- I updated to 3.2.5 → no difference.
- I installed 3.2.5 on a different server also running nginx (but with a different version) → no difference
- then I had another look at my nginx config for the site and removed this entry
location ~ \.(jpe?g|gif|png|webp|ico|cur|gz|svg|svgz|mp4|ogg|ogv|webm|htc)$ { expires 1M; access_log off; add_header Cache-Control "public"; }
I had initially added it after reading this thread: Nginx install and "The panel cannot connect to the API" problem - #3 by pedroborges, which is kind of funny because for me (on 2 nginx servers) it actually created this problem. I am not quite sure why this is the case. If anyone can enlighten me?
Anyway, happy now
