This is a WORK IN PROGRESS

I (CyrilLavier, aka davromaniak) am working on rewriting this page with the goal of being prepared for Debian 7.0 "Wheezy".

Feel free to edit this page, as it's a wiki, but don't hesitate to contact me in case of doubt and/or add a comment when editing.

Thanks

Nginx Web Server

Installation

Installing Nginx is easy, the nginx package is here for this.

But starting Debian 7.0 "Wheezy" and Squeeze-backports, the packaging has been modified to best fit the needs of users.

Debian Lenny and Squeeze

For those versions, Nginx is distributed as one package : nginx

The included modules are :

  • Debian Lenny (0.6.32) :
    • DAV
    • FLV
    • Stub Status
    • SSL
  • Debian Squeeze and Lenny-Backports (0.7.67) :
    • DAV
    • FLV
    • GeoIP
    • GZIP Static
    • Real IP
    • Stub Status
    • SSL
    • Sub Module
    • IPv6
    • Mail
    • Mail SSL
    • Upstream Fair

Debian Squeeze-Backports, Wheezy and after

Starting Debian Wheezy (and backported to Debian Squeeze), Nginx packaging has been produced with a best fitting with users' needs.

Three packages were created, nginx-light, nginx-full, nginx-extras.

Both contains different modules, nginx-light being the lighter and nginx-extras being the heavier. nginx-full is in the middle, being installed with the metapackage nginx (nginx-full is not installed if nginx-light is already installed).

Recap of the differents modules in every package (starting Squeeze-Backports)
