nginx 重载 配置 不生效

项目场景 & 问题描述：

最近在项目中的nginx配置修改一些内容时，经常重载（nginx -s reload）遇到不生效的情况，现在把我的拙见给大家说下。

原因分析：

先说结论，是因为长连接导致重载不生效，接下来我们一步步分析。

第一步：查看nginx进程和连接情况

[root@localhost conf.d]# ps -ef |grep nginx
root      75480      1  0 09:18 ?        00:00:00 nginx: master process ../../sbin/nginx
nginx     75482  75480  0 09:18 ?        00:00:35 nginx: worker process
root     109632 103442  0 14:30 pts/0    00:00:00 grep --color=auto nginx

[root@localhost conf.d]# netstat -anp|grep ESTABLISHED|grep 75482|wc -l
67

从结果我们可以看到有2个nginx的worker进程，并且建立中的连接有67个（当然这其中也包含当时的短链接），如上图。
注：由于nginx是公共服务器，暂时不清楚这些长连接的用途和逻辑。

第二步：重载并再次查看nginx进程和连接情况

[root@localhost conf.d]# ../../sbin/nginx -s reload
[root@localhost conf.d]# ps -ef |grep nginx
root      75480      1  0 09:18 ?        00:00:00 nginx: master process ../../sbin/nginx
nginx     75482  75480  0 09:18 ?        00:00:35 nginx: worker process is shutting down
nginx    109629  75480  5 14:30 ?        00:00:00 nginx: worker process
root     109632 103442  0 14:30 pts/0    00:00:00 grep --color=auto nginx

[root@localhost conf.d]# netstat -anp|grep ESTABLISHED|grep 75482|wc -l
25

此时我们可以看到有1个worker正在关闭且该进程对应的长连接还有25个，有1个新的worker已经启动，如上图。此时在测试刚才修改的nginx新配置，并未生效。

过了5分钟后，再次查看进程情况，进程和长连接情况依然如此，如下图。再次测试刚才修改的nginx新配置，还未生效。

[root@localhost conf.d]# ps -ef |grep nginx
root      75480      1  0 09:18 ?        00:00:00 nginx: master process ../../sbin/nginx
nginx     75482  75480  0 09:18 ?        00:00:40 nginx: worker process is shutting down
nginx    109629  75480  0 14:30 ?        00:00:01 nginx: worker process
root     110300 103442  0 14:37 pts/0    00:00:00 grep --color=auto nginx

[root@localhost conf.d]# netstat -anp|grep ESTABLISHED|grep 75482|wc -l
25

第三步：查看nginx重载日志

72384#0: signal process started
75480#0: signal 1 (SIGHUP) received from 72384, reconfiguring
75480#0: signal 1 (SIGHUP) received from 72384, reconfiguring
75480#0: reconfiguring
75480#0: reconfiguring
75480#0: using the "epoll" event method
75480#0: using the "epoll" event method
75480#0: start worker processes
75480#0: start worker processes
75480#0: start worker process 109629
75480#0: start worker process 109629

日志里显示接收到重载命令后，只是启动了一个新的worker进程，旧的进程一直没有退出。于是我在自己的虚拟机里搞了一个nginx，看到正常的重载日志如下，正常情况下会有gracefully shutting down和exiting输出。

16839#0: signal process started
10767#0: signal 1 (SIGHUP) received from 16839, reconfiguring
10767#0: signal 1 (SIGHUP) received from 16839, reconfiguring

解决方案：

改成重启nginx，修改的配置都生效了，命令如下：

# 优雅停机，等待请求处理完成
./nginx -s quit
# 快速关闭，不等请求处理完成（如果优雅停机也无法停止则使用该命令）
./nginx -s stop
# 启动
./nginx
