Mac OS X下配置nginx

Installing Nginx in Mac OS X Mountain Lion With Homebrew

OCT 10TH, 2012

Install with brew

Use brew to install the nginx with command:

$ brew install nginx

 

After install run:

$ sudo nginx

 

Testing

Test it by going to URL:

http://localhost:8080

Configuration

The default place of nginx.conf on Mac after installing with brew is:

/usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf

Changing the default port

The nginx default port is 8080, we shall change it to 80. First stop the nginx server if it is running by:

$ sudo nginx -s stop

Then open nginx.conf with:

$ vim /usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf

 

and change the:

/usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf

server {
    listen       8080;
    server_name  localhost;

    #access_log  logs/host.access.log  main;

    location / {
        root   html;
        index  index.html index.htm;
    }

to:

/usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf

server {
    listen       80;
    server_name  localhost;

    #access_log  logs/host.access.log  main;

    location / {
        root   html;
        index  index.html index.htm;
    }

Save configuration and start nginx by

$ sudo nginx

 

Changing the path of defualt web location

The nginx html folder (brew install only) is by the defult in:

/usr/local/Cellar/nginx/1.2.3/html

Note: change 1.2.3 to your nginx version.

The defualt path configuration:

/usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf

server {
    listen       80;
    server_name  localhost;

    #access_log  logs/host.access.log  main;

    location / {
        root   html;
        index  index.html index.htm;
    }

To let say Users/xajler/www:

/usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf

server {
    listen       80;
    server_name  localhost;

    #access_log  logs/host.access.log  main;

    location / {
        root   /Users/xajler/www;
        index  index.html index.htm;
    }

 

After change stop and start nginix server and nginx is now serving pages from your custom folder!
