注意：可能因版本不同，个别指令不起作用，需要注意版本灵活安装，我在安装时也遇到过此问题
开始学习nginx，初步安装nginx，先熟悉一下；参考网上的资料和涨宴老师书籍。
http://nginx.org/en/download.html
下载需要的版本，0.7版本的是稳定版本，0.8的是开发版本，看个人所好，我用的是nginx-0.8.48；
一、安装
1、检查安装nginx的依赖性，nginx的模块需要第三方库的支持，检查是否安装下列库：
zlib、zlib-devel、openssl、openssl-devel、prce、prce-devel
[root@mgmserver ~]# rpm -qa |grep zlib
zlib-devel-1.2.3-3
zlib-1.2.3-3
[root@mgmserver tar_packet]# rpm -qa |grep openssl
openssl-0.9.8e-12.el5
openssl-devel-0.9.8e-12.el5
[root@mgmserver tar_packet]# rpm -qa |grep pcre
pcre-6.6-2.el5_1.7
pcre-devel-6.6-2.el5_1.7
[root@mgmserver tar_packet]# rpm -qa |grep gcc
compat-libgcc-296-2.96-138
compat-gcc-34-g77-3.4.6-4
gcc-c++-4.1.2-46.el5
libgcc-4.1.2-46.el5
compat-gcc-34-3.4.6-4
compat-gcc-34-c++-3.4.6-4
gcc-java-4.1.2-46.el5
gcc-4.1.2-46.el5
gccp-gfortran-4.1.2-46.el5
[root@mgmserver tar_packet]# rpm -qa |grep autoconf
autoconf-2.59-12
[root@mgmserver tar_packet]# rpm -qa |grep automake
automake-1.9.6-2.1
automake16-1.6.3-8
automake15-1.5-16
automake17-1.7.9-7
automake14-1.4p6-13
2、添加nginx使用的用户和组 ，
[root@mgmserver ~]# groupadd nginx #nginx使用的组；
[root@mgmserver ~]# useradd -g nginx nginx #nginx使用用户；
3、安装
[root@mgmserver ~]# cd /home/tar_packet/
[root@mgmserver tar_packet]# tar -zxvf nginx-0.8.48.tar.gz -C /home/install_packet/
[root@mgmserver tar_packet]# cd ../install_packet/
[root@mgmserver install_packet]# cd nginx-0.8.48/
[root@mgmserver nginx-0.8.48]# ls
auto CHANGES CHANGES.ru conf configure contrib html LICENSE README src
[root@mgmserver nginx-0.8.48]# ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/nginx

二、启动nginx
[root@mgmserver nginx]# /usr/local/webserver/nginx/sbin/nginx -c /usr/local/webserver/nginx/conf/nginx.conf
参数"-c"指定了配置文件的路径，如果不加'-c"参数， nginx，会默认加载其安装目录中conf子目录中的nginx.conf文件。
[root@mgmserver nginx-0.8.48]# ps -ef |grep nginx
可以看到一个主nginx的进程信息，一个子进程；如果在安装过程指定了“-pid-path=<path>那么该文件就指定了nginx的主进程号，如果没有指定pid文件的存放路径，nginx.pid默认存放在nginx安装目录的logs子目录下，
[root@mgmserver logs]# ls
access.log error.log nginx.pid
[root@mgmserver logs]# cat nginx.pid
6019
三、nginx的信号控制
◆ TERM,INT 快速关闭
◆ QUIT 从容关闭
◆ HUP 平滑重启，重新加载配置文件
◆ USR1 重新打开日志文件，在切割日志时用途较大；
◆ USR2 平滑升级可执行程序
◆ WINCH 从容关闭工作进程
我们可以直接通过以下命令来完成平滑重启，省下寻找nginx主进程号的步骤；
kill -"信号类型” ‘/usr/local/nginx/logs/nginx.pid'或者nginx的主进程号
(1）、从容停止nginx
[root@mgmserver ~]# kill -QUIT 6019 #nginx主进程号
[root@mgmserver logs]# kill -QUIT `cat /usr/local/nginx/logs/nginx.pid`
(2)、快速停止nginx
[root@mgmserver logs]# kill -TERM /INT nginx主进程号
[root@mgmserver logs]# kill -TERM /INT `cat /usr/local/nginx/logs/nginx.pid
(3)、强制停止所有的nginx进程
#pkill -9 nginx
(4)、平滑重启nginx
修改了nginx的配置文件要重启nginx；重启之前要检查配置文件是否正确：
[root@mgmserver html]# /usr/local/nginx/sbin/nginx -t -c /usr/local/nginx/conf/nginx.conf
the configuration file /usr/local/nginx/conf/nginx.conf syntax is ok
configuration file /usr/local/nginx/conf/nginx.conf test is successful
[root@mgmserver conf]# kill -HUP `cat /usr/local/nginx/logs/nginx.pid`
注意符号；
nginx的平滑重启
kill -HUP Nginx主进程号
或者
kill -HUP ·nginx.pid文件按存放路径·
