nginx Util

Path

vi ~/.bashrc
export NGINX_HOME=/usr/local/nginx
export PATH=${JAVA_HOME}/bin:${NGINX_HOME}/sbin:$PATH
source ~/.bashrc

Uninstall

ps -ef|grep nginx
find / -name nginx
rm -rf /usr/local/nginx/
rm -rf /usr/local/nginx-1.6.2/

Command

  • -? | -h — print help for command-line parameters.

  • -c file — use an alternative configuration file instead of a default file.

  • -g directives — set global configuration directives, for example,

nginx -g “pid /var/run/nginx.pid; worker_processes sysctl -n hw.ncpu;”

  • -p prefix — set nginx path prefix, i.e. a directory that will keep server files (default value is /usr/local/nginx).

  • -q — suppress non-error messages during configuration testing.

  • -s signal — send a signal to the master process. The argument signal can be one of:

    • stop — shut down quickly

    • quit — shut down gracefully

    • reload — reload configuration, start the new worker process with a new configuration, gracefully shut down old worker processes.

    • reopen — reopen log files

  • -t — test the configuration file: nginx checks the configuration for correct syntax, and then tries to open files referred in the configuration.

  • -T — same as -t, but additionally dump configuration files to standard output (1.9.2).

  • -v — print nginx version.

  • -V — print nginx version, compiler version, and configure parameters.
