gplessis / dotdeb-nginx Goto Github PK

at least 2 comments on the blog asking why it was removed. Unless theres good technical reason not to, please consider re-enabling passenger support as this likely causes for many who then have to go through a reconfiguration process not just in server but in some cases there app codebase's

for example passengers own nginx repos dont have latest nginx versions as quickly or reliably as dotdeb did!

Hi guys

I apologise if this if the wrong forum but i'm trying to install nginx via dotdeb sources and having no luck. I have so far:

• Created a vanilla (VM, virtualbox on OSX 10.8) Debian 7.0 install
• Added dotdeb sources in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/dotdeb.list (inc. adding the gpg key)
• Run apt-get update

What i see is that the dotdeb sources are being ignored by apt and i can't see why:

apt-get update

Ign http://packages.dotdeb.org wheezy/all Translation-en_GB
Ign http://packages.dotdeb.org wheezy/all Translation-en

the "Translation-en..." looks odd to me but maybe that's a wheezy thing?

My conf files are:

/etc/apt/sources.list:
deb http://mirror.ox.ac.uk/debian/ wheezy main
deb-src http://mirror.ox.ac.uk/debian/ wheezy main

deb http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates main
deb-src http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates main

deb http://mirror.ox.ac.uk/debian/ wheezy-updates main
deb-src http://mirror.ox.ac.uk/debian/ wheezy-updates main

/etc/apt/sources.list.d/dotdeb.list:
deb http://packages.dotdeb.org wheezy all
deb-src http://packages.dotdeb.org wheezy all

i have no source pins or anything, this is a plain/vanilla install.

Any suggestions or pointers would be very much appreciated! This is my first wheezy install but i've used Debian for many years.

Edit: Apologies for the formatting...

Cheers
Neil

Hello,

Could you please include a flavor of the 3rd party nginx-x-rid-header module? It'd be very useful to know which front-end request corresponds to which back-end one.

I could try to hack up a pull request, but I happily managed to evade butchering up the codebase, thanks to DotDeb :)

Thanks,
Pas

Hi,

I was wondering when support for Wheezy will be introduced? I upgraded to Wheezy and had to downgrade from nginx-extras to nginx-full as nginx-extras complains about perlapi and libperl versions.

Thanks,
Terry

Can you add support to debian jessie?

Reported by one user :

I was troubleshooting an issue why the dotdeb version of nginx wasn't working. I discovered that the awk was playing it a little fast and loose and was finding the word pid anywhere in the file. I have some server_name's with the string pid in them, which was preventing it from starting. Here's a more strict awk that prevents it from happening:

awk -F'[ ;]' '$1 !~ /^#/ && /^pid / {print $2}' /etc/nginx/nginx.conf

(But this solution does not handle pid with leading withespaces)

The file "/etc/nginx/sites-available/default" contains a parameter "default" in the "#listen [::]:80 default ...", but the param "default" has been deprecated and replaced with "default_server" see:

http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_core_module.html#listen

From http://forum.nginx.org/read.php?2,235764,235764 :

I have problem somewhere between nginx and php-fpm. When I use keep-alive connection for fastgcgi php-fpm, there is often problem with loading page. Page not completely loaded. I tried to debug using wireshark, and see that php-fpm send to nginx coplete reply, but nginx to client sent incoplete page. Size of incomplete page is defined by chunk size. For test, download http://kinohled.cz/bugreport.tar.gz and run ./showBug.sh . You will se:

Run Nginx on port 9876
Run php-fpm on port 6789
Correct size of answer is 16172;
keepalive on, size: 8002
keepalive off, size: 16172
Next test (1 of 5)-
...

Tested on Debian Squeeze and many version of Nginx/PHP-FPM . Error shows on default Nginx/PHP-FPM version by Debian Squeeze by dotdeb.org .

nginx/1.2.6
PHP 5.3.21-1~dotdeb.0

On Nginx error log:

upstream sent unsupported FastCGI protocol version: 0 while reading upstream

Patch here

copied from the original blog comment:

if pid variable in /etc/nginx/nginx.conf is somewhat different than : pid /var/run/nginx.pid; .., (eg. more spaces between “pid” and “/var/run/nginx.pid”) then /etc/init.d/nginx script fails with message :
nginx: invalid option: “/var/run/nginx.pid”.

i think problem is in /etc/init.d/nginx , statement :
PID=$(awk -F’[ ;]‘ ‘/[^#]pid/ {print $2}’ /etc/nginx/nginx.conf).
result of awk is different in that case and init.d nginx script fails…

if you need more info like awk results and the original/new nginx.conf, let me know,

thx.

This is congruent with the mainline debian packages.

Here is a patch for this.

This will print the failure messages so they can be fixed.

Hi,

I am on ubuntu 12.04 and when I am trying to install nginx-extras I get the error:

    apt-get install nginx-extras

    Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have

Is it my repositories that are missing these libraries or have they been rename?

Thanks.

This module is for purging selected elements in cache with proxy_cache or fastcgi_cache.

Is like purge method in Varnish. In different CMS (Wordpress, Drupal, Magento, ...) plugins are available to clear only modified urls. This module accept PURGE method and prefix in url like /purge/page.html

The module url https://github.com/FRiCKLE/ngx_cache_purge/ available form 0.7 to 1.1 Nginx branch.

Thanks

I believe there’s a problem with nginx’s default config (/etc/nginx/sites-available/default).

root /usr/share/nginx/www;

But there’s no such directory and it causes nginx to loop while searching for index.html:

[error] 2003#0: *1 rewrite or internal redirection cycle while internally redirecting to "/index.html"

As a result user gets error 500 instead of ‘Welcome to nginx!’ page out of box.

Changing default root to /usr/share/nginx/html (which actually exists) solves the problem.

Then install nginx from the official repository. Got the console error.

Hi,

In rules, --with-http_spdy_module is included in common_configure_flags at line 56 and then again in config.status.extras: config.env.extras at line 133. Not sure if this is intended or not.

At the moment there are 3 repositories for getting nginx stable (1.6.0) for Debian Wheezy.

• dotdeb
• http://nginx.org/packages/debian/
• official wheezy-backports (https://packages.debian.org/wheezy-backports/nginx)

Can you clarify what is the difference between these and why should a user choose one over the others?

Hello everyone,

It would be very good, to see Pagespeed support in Nginx package. (Apacheahs mod_speed).

It comes from google: http://ngxpagespeed.com/ngx_pagespeed_example/ (homepage)
Github repo: https://github.com/pagespeed/ngx_pagespeed

Hello
Trying to recomplile nginx from sources:

apt-get source nginx
cd nginx-1.6.0

and got errors:

Looks like clean in rules is missing some rm

Is there any chance to get the real-ip module implemented? It's very usefull if you're using a reverse proxy like cloudflare.

Any chance to add nginx-sla module to build?

Prior to start/restart/reload, the script in init.d tests nginx' config.
If the config test (sudo nginx -t) fails, no message is printed on standard output and the server doesn't start/restart/reload.

dotdeb:

test_nginx_config() {
                $DAEMON -t $DAEMON_OPTS >/dev/null 2>&1
                retvar=$?
                if [ $retvar -ne 0 ]
                then
                        exit $retvar
                fi
}

squeeze:

test_nginx_config() {
  if $DAEMON -t $DAEMON_OPTS >/dev/null 2>&1
  then
    return 0
  else
    $DAEMON -t $DAEMON_OPTS
    return $?
  fi
}

any reason why nginx is compiled without any hardening flag?

# hardening-check /usr/sbin/nginx
/usr/sbin/nginx:
Position Independent Executable: no, normal executable!
Stack protected: no, not found!
Fortify Source functions: no, not found!

Hi, nginx 1.2.8
http://poiuty.ru/img/6c4f922fef530c814e2b2cefb0b1.png

Hi,

Can you please update NAXSI to the latest version? The current version is more than a year old.

Thanks

I'm trying to compile sources from dotdeb.org on armhf (Raspbian), but both witch "./debian/rules binary" and with "dpkg-buildpackage -uc -us" fails a build process.

What ist the right way to build packages from your sources?

Hi,

as stated in the changelog:

http://nginx.org/en/CHANGES-1.4

the ipv6only parameter is now turned on by default and could be removed from the sites-available/default example.

Although the master branch of that repository does not compile any more, the 2.2.0 version https://github.com/vkholodkov/nginx-upload-module/tree/2.2.0 which is the last "released" version works fine. I haven't test it with 1.8 but it works with 1.7.7. It would be great if you could put it back in the extras package again.

Hi, first thanks for your project I love it!

I was trying to build nginx from source based on the latest master here, but it is failing in applying the syslog patch. Looking at the source of the patch (https://github.com/yaoweibin/nginx_syslog_patch) it says that 1.3.11 patch is only for nginx 1.3.9+. While the 1.2.0 patch that was being used previously is for 1.2.0-1.3.9. Was swapping to the 1.3.11 patch due to some of the back ported changes in 1.2.7?

Any idea why a clean build would fail? Running debuild -S -sa I get:
dpkg-source: error: LC_ALL=C patch -t -F 0 -N -p1 -u -V never -g0 -E -b -B .pc/syslog_1.3.11.patch/ < nginx-1.2.7.orig.rRSKJM/debian/patches/syslog_1.3.11.patch gave error exit status 1

debuild: fatal error at line 1350:

Please , update nginx-push-stream-module up to 0.5.1 version

Hello,

I would like to use dotdeb-nginx with lua-nginx module on my servers but it seems that the lua-nginx is not up to date in dotdeb-nginx.

Can you update lua-nginx module ?

If yes, what are the rules or schedules for this module update ?

Thanks for your work.

The bundled version is from May 2014. Current version now is 7880ed4487 (10 feb 2015).

nginx 1.4.2 of nginx.org - works fine.

Hello. This will work for Debian Wheezy?

I would love if you added the Nginx LDAP module which is maintained here: https://github.com/kvspb/nginx-auth-ldap - even to nginx-extras

I have been recompiling your deb's for Squeeze for about a year to include this module and it works as expected.

I think (hope) LDAP is not too uncommon to include? Surely I am not the only one using LDAP HTTP auth with Nginx on Debian, as many do with Apache :)

Hi.

I would like to ask if you could include the HttpSubsModule in one of the next releases.

Link: http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpSubsModule

(i do not know if this is a problem spcific to this package or if i should report this upstream, so i first try here :-))

I have been running nginx v1.2.5-1dotdeb.0 on debian 6.0.7/2.6.32-5-amd64 from some time, now upgraded to v1.2.7-1dotdeb.1.

I host some domains, some are configured individually, some via catch-all and then proxied.

• all domains: without prefix: redirect (301) to www.${DOMAIN}, server_name: ${DOMAIN}
• Domains A, B, C: individual configs, server_name: www.${DOMAIN}, some served via php-fpm, some via proxy/apache
• Domains D, E, F: one config, server_name: _;, proxy to apache

As soon as i install v1.2.7-1~dotdeb.1 i get a redirect-loop accessing domains D, E, F...
Any hints/ideas/...?

Here is my purge command

When the package is purged the following is leftover.

/var/lib/nginx/proxy
/var/lib/nginx/scgi
/var/lib/nginx/uwsgi
/var/lib/update-rc.d/nginx

The problem created by this is that after purging and reinstalling it wont regenerate the default set of config files as the install script tries to non-stomp.

After removing the above files manually it works.

Here is a quick bash script I wrote for manually purging.

#!/bin/bash

echo -n "Purging nginx-extras... "
rm -rf /etc/nginx
rm -f /etc/default/nginx
rm -f /etc/init.d/nginx
rm -f /etc/logrotate.d/nginx
rm -f /etc/ufw/applications.d/nginx
rm -rf /var/lib/nginx
rm -rf /var/log/nginx*
rm -f /var/lib/update-rc.d/nginx
rm -f /var/lib/dpkg/info/nginx*
rm -f /etc/rc*.d/*nginx
echo "done"

Below is the output of a desired purge run after using my included script.

I believe that at least some of the commands from my script need to be added to the postrm.sh under the purge section.

Let me know if I am crazy here.

Thanks

Hi.

Do you think that you will find a little time to add Enhanced Memcached module?
https://github.com/bpaquet/ngx_http_enhanced_memcached_module

Great work :)

After purging and reinstalling (see #17 for complete purging) The new default config tries to bind to ipv6 ::80 and for me this failed on a few machines.

Setting up nginx-extras (1.2.7-1~dotdeb.1) ...

Restarting Services ... nginx: [emerg] bind() to [::]:80 failed (98: Address already in use)
nginx: [emerg] bind() to [::]:80 failed (98: Address already in use)
nginx: [emerg] bind() to [::]:80 failed (98: Address already in use)
nginx: [emerg] bind() to [::]:80 failed (98: Address already in use)
nginx: [emerg] bind() to [::]:80 failed (98: Address already in use)
nginx: [emerg] still could not bind()

I dont believe this should be the default behavior as it doesnt seem to work out of the box on some machines.

Thanks

Hi,

Would it be possible to have a flavor that includes all the extras and naxsi?

Thanks,

Terry

Does it use a different key?

I'd like to see ModSecurity for Nginx included in dotdeb build, maybe in nginx-extras?

http://www.modsecurity.org/projects/modsecurity/nginx/

Hi, it looks like some of the config files in wheezy/debian/conf are really old. eg mime.types

The latest upstream versions in wheezy/conf do not seem to be used.

i just installed nginx 1.8 and my site broke.

I found that from the new fastcgi_params file, SCRIPT_FILENAME is missing which is required for fpm.

As i see here:

debian package maintainers removed the this distro-extra-included line from the default config which now synced with dotdeb-nginx.

So there is two way of solving this problem:
2) Always define SCRIPT_FILENAME parameter in your config, like this:

    location ~ ^/index\.php(/|$) {
            fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(.*)$;
            fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;
            fastcgi_index index.php;
            include fastcgi_params;
            fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $request_filename;
    }

2. Put back the line

fastcgi_param   SCRIPT_FILENAME         $request_filename;

to your fastcgi_params file.

I Mirror various linux bits over at mirror.stshosting.co.uk, now when i used to mirror with apache the various Distributions would have there own header and footer html that would be loaded automatically with no extra configuration required. however this is not possible with the current nginx modules compiled in by dotdeb

please can you consider adding this module to the nginx-extras package so that we can utilise it and get this functionality back again

There have been two fixes we were able to contribute to the nginx-auth-ldap module, already merged upstream. We are using dotdeb for our packages, so we would love to see the changes in the upcoming Dotdeb Nginx release.

Would it be possible to update the page speed module in nginx-extras to the latest release ?

Hello,

First, thanks for your work, Dotdeb helped me to setup a server with up to date technologies.

According to this article (http://nginx.com/blog/nginx-1-6-1-7-released/), it's not a bad idea to install NGINX mainline version.

Dotdeb have an option to choose to install this version?

Thanks
