#### Installation instructions
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Before you install nginx for the first time on a new machine, you need to set up the nginx packages repository. Afterward, you can install and update nginx from the repository.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### RHEL/CentOS
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Install the prerequisites:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> sudo yum install yum-utils
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To set up the yum repository, create the file named `/etc/yum.repos.d/nginx.repo` with the following contents:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> [nginx-stable]
|
|
|
|
|
|
> name=nginx stable repo
|
|
|
|
|
|
> baseurl=http://nginx.org/packages/centos/$releasever/$basearch/
|
|
|
|
|
|
> gpgcheck=1
|
|
|
|
|
|
> enabled=1
|
|
|
|
|
|
> gpgkey=https://nginx.org/keys/nginx_signing.key
|
|
|
|
|
|
> module_hotfixes=true
|
|
|
|
|
|
> [nginx-mainline]
|
|
|
|
|
|
> name=nginx mainline repo
|
|
|
|
|
|
> baseurl=http://nginx.org/packages/mainline/centos/$releasever/$basearch/
|
|
|
|
|
|
> gpgcheck=1
|
|
|
|
|
|
> enabled=0
|
|
|
|
|
|
> gpgkey=https://nginx.org/keys/nginx_signing.key
|
|
|
|
|
|
> module_hotfixes=true
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
By default, the repository for stable nginx packages is used. If you would like to use mainline nginx packages, run the following command:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> sudo yum-config-manager --enable nginx-mainline
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To install nginx, run the following command:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> sudo yum install nginx
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When prompted to accept the GPG key, verify that the fingerprint matches `573B FD6B 3D8F BC64 1079 A6AB ABF5 BD82 7BD9 BF62`, and if so, accept it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Debian
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Install the prerequisites:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> sudo apt install curl gnupg2 ca-certificates lsb-release debian-archive-keyring
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Import an official nginx signing key so apt could verify the packages authenticity. Fetch the key:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> curl https://nginx.org/keys/nginx_signing.key | gpg --dearmor \
|
|
|
|
|
|
> | sudo tee /usr/share/keyrings/nginx-archive-keyring.gpg >/dev/null
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Verify that the downloaded file contains the proper key:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> gpg --dry-run --quiet --import --import-options import-show /usr/share/keyrings/nginx-archive-keyring.gpg
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The output should contain the full fingerprint `573BFD6B3D8FBC641079A6ABABF5BD827BD9BF62` as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> pub rsa2048 2011-08-19 [SC] [expires: 2024-06-14]
|
|
|
|
|
|
> 573BFD6B3D8FBC641079A6ABABF5BD827BD9BF62
|
|
|
|
|
|
> uid nginx signing key <signing-key@nginx.com>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If the fingerprint is different, remove the file.

|
|
|
|
|
|
> http://nginx.org/packages/debian `lsb_release -cs` nginx" \
|
|
|
|
|
|
> | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nginx.list
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you would like to use mainline nginx packages, run the following command instead:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/nginx-archive-keyring.gpg] \
|
|
|
|
|
|
> http://nginx.org/packages/mainline/debian `lsb_release -cs` nginx" \
|
|
|
|
|
|
> | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nginx.list
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Set up repository pinning to prefer our packages over distribution-provided ones:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> echo -e "Package: *\nPin: origin nginx.org\nPin: release o=nginx\nPin-Priority: 900\n" \
|

Finally, move the key to apk trusted keys storage:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> sudo mv /tmp/nginx_signing.rsa.pub /etc/apk/keys/
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To install nginx, run the following command:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> sudo apk add nginx@nginx
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The `@nginx` tag should also be specified when installing packages with [dynamic modules](https://nginx.org/en/linux_packages.html#dynmodules):
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> sudo apk add nginx-module-image-filter@nginx nginx-module-njs@nginx
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Amazon Linux
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Install the prerequisites:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> sudo yum install yum-utils
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To set up the yum repository, create the file named `/etc/yum.repos.d/nginx.repo` with the following contents:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> [nginx-stable]
|
|
|
|
|
|
> name=nginx stable repo
|
|
|
|
|
|
> baseurl=http://nginx.org/packages/amzn2/$releasever/$basearch/
|
|
|
|
|
|
> gpgcheck=1
|
|
|
|
|
|
> enabled=1
|
|
|
|
|
|
> gpgkey=https://nginx.org/keys/nginx_signing.key
|
|
|
|
|
|
> module_hotfixes=true
|
|
|
|
|
|
> [nginx-mainline]
|
|
|
|
|
|
> name=nginx mainline repo
|
|
|
|
|
|
> baseurl=http://nginx.org/packages/mainline/amzn2/$releasever/$basearch/
|
|
|
|
|
|
> gpgcheck=1
|
|
|
|
|
|
> enabled=0
|
|
|
|
|
|
> gpgkey=https://nginx.org/keys/nginx_signing.key
|
|
|
|
|
|
> module_hotfixes=true
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
By default, the repository for stable nginx packages is used. If you would like to use mainline nginx packages, run the following command:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> sudo yum-config-manager --enable nginx-mainline
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To install nginx, run the following command:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> sudo yum install nginx
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When prompted to accept the GPG key, verify that the fingerprint matches `573B FD6B 3D8F BC64 1079 A6AB ABF5 BD82 7BD9 BF62`, and if so, accept it.

#### Source Packages
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Packaging sources can be found in the [packaging sources repository](http://hg.nginx.org/pkg-oss).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The `default` branch holds packaging sources for the current mainline version, while `stable-*` branches contain latest sources for stable releases. To build binary packages, run `make` in `debian/` directory on Debian/Ubuntu, or in `rpm/SPECS/` on RHEL/CentOS/SLES/Amazon Linux, or in `alpine/` on Alpine.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Packaging sources are distributed under the same [2-clause BSD-like license](https://nginx.org/LICENSE) used by nginx.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Dynamic Modules
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Main nginx package is built with all modules that do not require additional libraries to avoid extra dependencies. Since version 1.9.11, nginx supports [dynamic modules](https://nginx.org/en/docs/ngx_core_module.html#load_module) and the following modules are built as dynamic and shipped as separate packages:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> nginx-module-geoip
|
|
|
|
|
|
> nginx-module-image-filter
|
|
|
|
|
|
> nginx-module-njs
|
|
|
|
|
|
> nginx-module-perl
|
|
|
|
|
|
> nginx-module-xslt
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Signatures
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Since our [PGP keys](https://nginx.org/en/pgp_keys.html) and packages are located on the same server, they are equally trusted. It is highly advised to additionally verify the authenticity of the downloaded PGP key. PGP has the “Web of Trust” concept, when a key is signed by someone else’s key, that in turn is signed by another key and so on. It often makes possible to build a chain from an arbitrary key to someone’s key who you know and trust personally, thus verify the authenticity of the first key in a chain. This concept is described in details in [GPG Mini Howto](https://www.gnupg.org/howtos/en/GPGMiniHowto-1.html). Our keys have enough signatures, and their authenticity is relatively easy to check.
