WebServers > Nginx

Nginx Web Server

Installation

Installaing Nginx is not complicated, the package nginx 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 packaged as one package : nginx

The included modules are for Debian Lenny (0.6.32) :

  • DAV
  • FLV
  • Stub Status
  • SSL

The included modules are for Debian Squeeze (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 was splitted to best fit the needs of users.

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).
