Install Nginx on Linux operating system CentOS7

1. Download Nginx from the official website

Click to download

2. Unzip the file

tar -zxvf nginx-1.20.2.tar.gz

3. Configure nginx

Execute the command in the directory /usr/local/nginx/nginx-1.20.2

./configure

Execute the make command again

make

If an error is reported

make: *** No rule to make target build, needed by default. Stop.

Solution

You need to install openssl and ncurses components and enter the following commands in order

yum install -y openssl*

yum -y install ncurses-devel

After installation, you need to re-execute ./configure under the current file

./configure			#先执行
make			    #执行完./configure之后，敲make回车
make install		#确认是否安装成功（可执行可不执行,没有影响）

4. Start nginx

It is generally installed in the /usr/local/nginx directory on the Linux virtual machine. You can search

whereis nginx			#查找nginx文件
cd /usr/local/nginx		#进入该文件

Start the nginx file in the sbin/ directory

cd ./sbin		#进入sbin文件
./nginx			#启动nginx程序

If no error is reported, the startup is successful.

This shows that it was successful

5. Commonly used commands

./nginx -s stop		#停止nginx
./nginx	-s quit		#安全退出
./nginx -s reload	#修改了文件之后重新加载该程序文件
ps aux|grep nginx	#查看nginx进程
