I think this message belongs here: [Set GARBAGE\_INTERVAL on 2.12 version - #6 by vitalino](https://openvidu.discourse.group/t/set-garbage-interval-on-2-12-version/3286/6)

The `nginx` container running by our deployment serves custom layouts in `/opt/openvidu/custom-layout`.

From what I can see in your previous posts, you’re locating layout files in `/media/recording/files/layout/` and configuring some env variables.

Probably you would not require apache if you put the files in `/opt/openvidu/custom-layout` and you delete these two environent variables:

- `OPENVIDU_RECORDING_CUSTOM_LAYOUT`
- `OPENVIDU_RECORDING_COMPOSED_URL`

Anyways if it is working for you, there is no need to check it. But it is just a suggestion.
