+# Common Problems
+
+## types_hash errors
+
+Depending on the server architecture, it's possible to get the following error:
+
+> could not build the types_hash, you should increase either
+> types_hash_max_size: 1024 or types_hash_bucket_size: 32
+
+Nginx uses [hash tables](http://nginx.org/en/docs/hash.html) to speed up certain
+tasks, usually the default value is sufficient but depending on the actual server
+config this error might be encountered. The solution is to do exactly what the
+error message suggests, but adding to nginx.conf the following:
+
+    # add this to the http context
+    types_hash_max_size: 1024;
+
+    ## OR add this to the http context, don't need both
+    # types_hash_bucket_size: 32
