Tutorials for installing and configuring Nginx under Linux Server
Nginx ("engine x") is a high-performance Web and reverse proxy server developed by Russian programmer Igor Sysoev. It is also an IMAP/POP3/SMTP proxy server.
In the case of high connection concurrency, Nginx is a good alternative to Apache servers.
Nginx installation
Install compilation tools and library files
Yum-y install make zlib zlib-devel gcc-c++ libtool openssl openssl-devel
Second, first install PCRE
The purpose of PCRE is to make Nginx support Rewrite functionality.
1. Download the PCRE installation package at http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/pcre/pcre/8.35/pcre-8.35.tar.gz
[root@bogon src] # wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/pcre/pcre/8.35/pcre-8.35.tar.gz
2. Extract the installation package:
[root@bogon src] # tar zxvf pcre-8.35.tar.gz
3. Enter the installation package directory
[root@bogon src] # cd pcre-8.35
4. Compile and install
[root@bogon pcre-8.35] #. / configure [root@bogon pcre-8.35] # make & & make install
5. View the pcre version
[root@bogon pcre-8.35] # pcre-config-- version
Third, install Nginx
1. Download Nginx at http://nginx.org/download/nginx-1.6.2.tar.gz
[root@bogon src] # wget http://nginx.org/download/nginx-1.6.2.tar.gz
2. Extract the installation package
[root@bogon src] # tar zxvf nginx-1.6.2.tar.gz
3. Enter the installation package directory
[root@bogon src] # cd nginx-1.6.2
4. Compile and install
[root@bogon nginx-1.6.2] # / configure-- prefix=/usr/local/webserver/nginx-- with-http_stub_status_module-- with-http_ssl_module-- with-pcre=/usr/local/src/pcre-8.35 [root@bogon nginx-1.6.2] # make [root@bogon nginx-1.6.2] # make install
5. View the nginx version
[root@bogon nginx-1.6.2] # / usr/local/webserver/nginx/sbin/nginx-v
At this point, the nginx installation is complete.
IV. Nginx configuration
Create the user www used by the Nginx run:
[root@bogon conf] # / usr/sbin/groupadd www [root@bogon conf] # / usr/sbin/useradd-g www www
Configure nginx.conf to replace / usr/local/webserver/nginx/conf/nginx.conf with the following
[root@bogon conf] # cat / usr/local/webserver/nginx/conf/nginx.confuser www www;worker_processes 2; # setting value and number of CPU cores are the same error_log / usr/local/webserver/nginx/logs/nginx_error.log crit; # log location and log level pid / usr/local/webserver/nginx/nginx.pid;#Specifies the value for maximum file descriptors that can be opened by this process.worker_rlimit_nofile 65535 words events {use epoll; worker_connections 65535;} http {include mime.types Default_type application/octet-stream; log_format main'$remote_addr-$remote_user [$time_local] "$request"'$status $body_bytes_sent "$http_referer"'"$http_user_agent" $http_x_forwarded_for';#charset gb2312; server_names_hash_bucket_size 128; client_header_buffer_size 32k; large_client_header_buffers 4 32k; client_max_body_size 8m; sendfile on; tcp_nopush on; keepalive_timeout 60; tcp_nodelay on Fastcgi_connect_timeout 300; fastcgi_send_timeout 300; fastcgi_read_timeout 300; fastcgi_buffer_size 64k; fastcgi_buffers 4 64k; fastcgi_busy_buffers_size 128k; fastcgi_temp_file_write_size 128k; gzip on; gzip_min_length 1k; gzip_buffers 4 16k; gzip_http_version 1.0; gzip_comp_level 2; gzip_types text/plain application/x-javascript text/css application/xml; gzip_vary on; # limit_zone crawler $binary_remote_addr 10m # the following is the configuration of the server virtual host server {listen 80 * # listening port server_name localhost;# domain name index index.html index.htm index.php; root / usr/local/webserver/nginx/html;# site directory location ~. *\.

(gif | jpg | jpeg | png | bmp | swf | ico) ${expires 30d # access_log off;} location ~. *\. (js | css)? ${expires 15d; # access_log off;} access_log off;}}
Check the correctness of the configuration file ngnix.conf command:
[root@bogon conf] # / usr/local/webserver/nginx/sbin/nginx-t
5. Start Nginx
The Nginx startup command is as follows:
[root@bogon conf] # / usr/local/webserver/nginx/sbin/nginx
6. Visit the site
Access our configured site ip from the browser:
VII. Other Nginx commands
Here are a few commands commonly used by Nginx:
/ usr/local/webserver/nginx/sbin/nginx-s reload # reload configuration file / usr/local/webserver/nginx/sbin/nginx-s reopen # restart Nginx/usr/local/webserver/nginx/sbin/nginx-s stop # stop Nginx
