How to Install and Set Up Nginx: A Beginner's Guide

This article provides some common knowledge about Nginx, a popular web server that is used to serve static content, reverse proxy, or load balance HTTP traffic. Here are some key takeaways:

  • To install Nginx on Ubuntu, you need root privileges. After installation, Nginx can be run under a non-root user like "www-data".
  • The default Nginx configuration file is located in /etc/nginx/nginx.conf.
  • To start/stop/restart the Nginx service, use the systemctl command: sudo systemctl start/stop/restart nginx.
  • To check whether Nginx is running or not, use: sudo systemctl status nginx.
  • To configure Nginx for your specific use case, consult the official Nginx documentation or seek help from a qualified web developer or sysadmin.

Here are some resources that you can use to learn more about Nginx and how to configure it:

  1. Official Nginx Documentation: https://nginx.org/en/docs/
  2. Nginx Beginner's Guide: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/nginx-ubuntu-18-04-ru
  3. Nginx Configuration Primer: https://www.linode.com/docs/guides/nginx-configuration-primer/

That's it! You should now have Nginx installed and running on your Ubuntu system.

Here are the steps to install and configure Nginx on Ubuntu:

  1. Update Package Manager: Run the following command to update the package manager:

    sudo apt-get update
    
  2. Install Nginx: Run the following command to install Nginx:

    sudo apt-get install nginx
    
  3. Start Nginx: After installation, start the Nginx service using the following command:

    sudo systemctl start nginx
    
  4. Enable Nginx at boot: To ensure that Nginx starts automatically whenever the system boots up, run the following command:

    sudo systemctl enable nginx
    
  5. Verify Nginx is running: To check whether Nginx is running or not, run the following command:

    sudo systemctl status nginx
    

    If Nginx is running, you should see a message similar to the following:

    Active: active (running) since Fri 2021-10-01 13:28:18 UTC; 2min 32s ago
    
  6. Configure Firewall: If you have a firewall enabled, make sure to allow HTTP traffic through it using the following command:

    sudo ufw allow 'Nginx HTTP'
    
  7. Visit Nginx default page: Finally, open a web browser and navigate to http://<your_server_ip> to see the default Nginx welcome page.
