How to make nginx a self-starting service

1. Need to use the "Windows Service Wrapper" gadget, project address:   https://github.com/kohsuke/winsw  (for learning)

2. Download address:   http://repo.jenkins-ci.org/releases/com/sun/winsw/winsw/1.18/winsw-1.18-bin.exe

3. After downloading the tool, place it in the Nginx installation directory and rename it to nginx-service.exe to create a configuration file nginx-service.xml (the name must be the same as the tool name) There is Chinese, otherwise it will cause the publication to fail)

4. Create nginx-service.exe.config (to support NET 4.0 runtime, only NET 2.0 runtime is supported by default)

 

5. The content of nginx-service.xml is as follows: (remember to modify the path)

<service>  
<id>nginx</id> 
 <name>Nginx Service</name> 
 <description>High Performance Nginx Service</description> 
 <logpath>D:\Web\nginx\logs</logpath>  
 <log mode="roll-by-size">  
 <sizeThreshold>10240</sizeThreshold>   
 <keepFiles></8keepFiles>   </log> 
 <executable>D:\Web\nginx\nginx.exe</executable>  
 <startarguments>-pD:\Web\nginx</startarguments> 
 <stopexecutable>D:\Web\nginx\nginx.exe</stopexecutable> 
 <stoparguments>-pD:\Web\nginx -s stop</stoparguments> </service>

 

6. The content of nginx-service.exe.config is as follows:

<configuration> 
 <startup>   
 <supportedRuntime version="v2.0.50727" />  
 <supportedRuntime version="v4.0" />   </startup>
 <runtime>     <generatePublisherEvidence enabled="false"/>  
 </runtime>
 </configuration>

 

7. Important: Run cmd as an administrator, jump to the directory where nginx is located, install nginx service, execute the command:

nginx-service.exe install

 

Uninstall:

nginx-service.exe uninstall or sc delete service name

 

 

 

 

At this time, the windows service of nginx has been installed, run-> services.msc to open the service list

 

 

8. Start the service, close the service command

Start: net start nginx

Close: net stop nginx

 

Note: After  installing as a service, nginx -s reload is not available and an error will be reported

 

9. Restart the computer, and then open the service list to view, this time the service has been self-started
