Nginx (lightweight web Server) is a high performance HTTP and reverse proxy server.

Advantages: less memory, strong anti-concurrency ability, suitable for dealing with static pages, high stability, support for hot deployment and so on.

Disadvantages: dealing with dynamic pages, bug is more than apache.

Features: modularization

It is roughly divided into two modules: the main module and the event module.

(main module: configure some parameters related to the overall situation of the server, such as error log, process, permissions, etc.)

(event module: configure parameters related to the IO event interface, such as: worker_connections)

If the module is refined, it is divided into five categories: 1. Core module 2. Standard http module 3. Optional http module 4. Mail module 5. Third-party modules and patches

First, the preparation before Nginx installation:

1) install support softwar

Yum-y install make zlib zlib-devel gcc-c++ libtool openssl openssl-devel

2) install PCRE (the function of PCRE is to make Nginx support Rewrite function)

1. Download the PCRE installation package

# wget http:// http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/pcre/pcre/8.35/pcre-8.35.tar.gz

two。 Extract and go to the directory where the package is installed

# tar zxvf pcre-8.35.tar.gz

# cd pcre-8.35

3. Compile and install and view the pcre version

#. / configure & & make & & make install

# prce-config-version

3) create and run users and groups

Nginx service programs run as nobody by default. It is recommended to create special user accounts for them in order to control their access rights more accurately, increase flexibility and reduce security risks.

For example: create a user named nginx, do not establish a host folder, and prohibit login to the Shell environment.

# useradd-M-s / sbin/nologin nginx

Second, install Nginx and start:

1) install Nginx

1. Download Nginx

# wget http://nginx.org/download/nginx-1.6.2.tar.gz

two。 Extract and go to the directory where the package is installed

# tar zxvf nginx-1.6.2.tar.gz

# cd nginx-1.6.2

3. Basic compilation and installation

#. / configure-prefix=/usr/local/nginx-user=nginx-grep=nginx-with-http_stub_status_module (
