[Dom]

Update any Pre-Installed Sofware :

 yum clean all
    yum -y update glibc\*
    yum -y update yum\* rpm\* python\*
    yum clean all
    yum -y update

Secure /tmp

rm -rf /tmp
    mkdir /tmp
    mount -t tmpfs -o rw,noexec,nosuid tmpfs /tmp
    chmod 1777 /tmp

rm -rf /var/tmp
    ln -s /tmp /var/tmp

Install NSD

wget http://www.nlnetlabs.nl/downloads/nsd/nsd-3.2.8.tar.gz

    tar xzvf nsd-3.2.8.tar.gz
    cd nsd-3.2.8
    ./configure
    make
    make install

==============================

groupadd nsd
    useradd -g nsd -s /sbin/nologin -M nsd

=============================

mkdir /var/run/nsd
    chown -R nsd:nsd /var/run/nsd/
    chown -R nsd:nsd /var/db/nsd/
    mkdir /etc/nsd/master
    mkdir /etc/nsd/slave
    chown -R nsd:nsd /etc/nsd/
    cp -R $CUR_DIR/config/nsd/* /etc/nsd/
    cd /etc/sysconfig/
    mv $CUR_DIR/sysconfig/nsd nsd
    cd /etc/init.d/
    mv $CUR_DIR/init/nsd nsd
    chmod +x /etc/init.d/nsd
    chkconfig --levels 235 nsd on
    /etc/init.d/nsd start

Install NT

 yum -y install ntp
        chkconfig --levels 235 ntpd on
        ntpdate pool.ntp.org
        /etc/init.d/ntpd star

Now We install Nginx.

/sbin/service httpd stop
      chkconfig httpd off

http://nginx.org/download/nginx-1.0.2.tar.gz

tar xvfz nginx-1.0.2.tar.gz
    cd nginx-1.02
    ./configure --sbin-path=/usr/local/sbin --with-http_ssl_module
    make
    make install

groupadd nginx
    useradd -g nginx -d /home/nginx -s /sbin/nologin nginx
    mkdir /home/nginx/domains
    mkdir -p /home/nginx/domains/demo.com/{public,private,log,backup}
    cp -R $CUR_DIR/htdocs/demo.com/* /home/nginx/domains/demo.com/public
    chown -R nginx:nginx /home/nginx
    cp -R $CUR_DIR/htdocs/default/* /usr/local/nginx/html
    rm -rf $CUR_DIR/htdocs
    mkdir /usr/local/nginx/conf/conf.d/
    cp -R $CUR_DIR/config/nginx/* /usr/local/nginx/conf/
    cd /etc/init.d/
    mv $CUR_DIR/init/nginx nginx
    chmod +x nginx
    ./nginx start
    chkconfig --levels 235 nginx on

Install PHP

Yum install php

Install MYSQL

 yum -y install mysql mysql-devel mysql-server
    mv $CUR_DIR/config/mysql/my.cnf /etc/my.cnf

    chkconfig --levels 235 mysqld on
    /etc/init.d/mysqld start

mysql_secure_installation

Install SendMail

yum -y install sendmail mailx
    chkconfig --levels 235 sendmail on
    /etc/init.d/sendmail start

And Done! :D , You have now install a nice little Nginx WebServer

Thanks mate )

---------------------------------

I think you gotta put your nginx.conf configuration to see how to run php file.

 

[kundurocks]

Hi, can you tell me hoe to avoid the Error 404 page in nGinx?

Its really bothering me mate.

 

[Dom]

What do you mean avoid ? ... You should be typing in the right URL

 

[mRAza]

If you dont like to bother with all above commands and using centos, here is an alternative script which will download everything and install for you with only couple of commands..

wget http://freevps.us/downloads/nginx-centos.sh
bash nginx-centos.sh

source
https://freevps.us/thread-528.html

 

[Dom]

thanks for that mRAza , people may find it easier to use a bash script

 

[mamantoyol]

after done install how to access web panel, example if apache cPanel http://www.domain.com:2082 or /cpanel, for nginx how?

 

[mRAza]

There is no panel installed, you need to manage through SSH, if you are looking for a free panel like cpanel you can install kloxo or webmin.

to install kloxo here are commands, make sure its a fresh install

wget http://download.lxlabs.com/download/kloxo/production/kloxo-install-master.sh
sh ./kloxo-install-master.sh

note* it will install apache not nginx.

 

[Dom]

You could always install ISPmanager




wget "http://download.ispsystem.com/install.sh"
sh install.sh




======================================================

rpm -ihv [URL]http://centos.alt*****repository/centos/5/i386/centalt-release-5-3.noarch.rpm[/URL]

rpm -ihv [URL]http://centos.alt*****repository/centos/5/x86_64/centalt-release-5-3.noarch.rpm[/URL]

yum makecache /usr/local/ispmgr/sbin/pkgctl cache

/etc/init.d/nginx/restart

 

[Atlaschild]

this is hard steps for me

but thank you maybe i'll use it in the future

 

[Ruriko]

how to install on ubuntu?

 

[Nickk96]

Is this not an easier way? http://www.whmsecurity.com/tutorials/6-how-install-nginx-cpanel-easy-way.html

Also I have Apache already installed on my site. If I do it mRAzas way, will I need to do anything such as disable Apache? Or do I just run the batch script and everything should run fine?http://www.wjunction.com/members/mraza/

 

[imagepad]

There's a plugin for cPanel & Direct Admin to run/install Nginx

 

[Nickk96]

Whats that plugin called?

 

[imagepad]

http://nginxcp.com/ (Free)
http://cpnginx.com/ (Paid)

There's numerous solutions out there. I've used these before and they work fine. I can't tell you the differences (if any) between this one and the paid one.

There's probably numerous other ones I just can't think of them off hand.

 

[lache]

which cp is more good ?

 

[tut2tut]

gonna try this out
