Operating System: macOs High Sierra 10.13.6
1. I use homebrew installed nignx1.15.9, after the installation is complete there will be the following tips:
The web root directory: / usr / local / var / www
nginx configuration file locations: / usr / local / etc / nginx
Note: nginx is mounted to the directory location: / usr / local / Cellar / nginx
Default Port: 8080
2. Start:
Terminal run directly: nginx
Because I modified the configuration file: changed the default port 8080 80.
The reason is that need root privileges port below 1024 start, so sudo nginx can.
3. restart, stop
After viewing the help available:
Terminal run:
nginx -s reload sudo // After modifying the configuration reloaded into force
Reopen nginx -s sudo // reopen the log file
nginx -s STOP sudo // quick stop nginx
nginx -s quit sudo // stop complete and orderly nginx / elegant closed (open connection to the service completed)
4. configuration file to determine whether there is a problem :
Terminal run: sudo nginx -t
Other ways to stop nginx services:
View nginx processes, process, stop the process, then you can kill
View nginx processes: PS -ef | grep nginx
the kill -QUIT sudo // main process ID
sudo kill -TERM //主进程号
