1、更新系统Ubuntu Server 14.10
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
2、安装nginx的依赖包 zlib pcre openssl（可以源码安装也可以直接系统安装）
sudo apt-get install libpcre3 libpcre3-dev zlib1g-dev libssl-dev build-essential
3、下载openssl源码包
wget http://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-1.0.2a.tar.gz
sudo tar -zxvf openssl-1.0.2a.tar.gz -C /usr/local/src/
cd /usr/local/src/openssl-1.0.2a/
sudo ./config
sudo make && sudo make install
4、下载nginx源码包
wget http://nginx.org/download/nginx-1.8.0.tar.gz
sudo tar -zxvf nginx-1.8.0.tar.gz -C /usr/local/src/
cd /usr/local/src/nginx-1.8.0
sudo ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/nginx --with-openssl=/usr/include/openssl
sudo make && sudo make install
5、配置nginx 开机服务。
默认这么安装好以后每次检查配置、重启之类的操作略麻烦，所以我们模仿 Ubuntu 14.04 官方源，给系统设置个 nginx 服务，方便我们检查配置、启动重启关闭 Nginx 以及开机自动启动 Nginx
sudo vim /etc/init.d/nginx
插入如下内容：
#!/bin/sh
### BEGIN INIT INFO
# Provides: nginx
# Required-Start: $local_fs $remote_fs $network $syslog
# Required-Stop: $local_fs $remote_fs $network $syslog
# Default-Start: 2 3 4 5
# Default-Stop: 0 1 6
# Short-Description: starts the nginx web server
# Description: starts nginx using start-stop-daemon
### END INIT INFO
PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin
DAEMON=/usr/sbin/nginx
NAME=nginx
DESC=nginx
# Include nginx defaults if available
if [ -f /etc/default/nginx ]; then
. /etc/default/nginx
fi
test -x $DAEMON || exit 0
set -e
. /lib/lsb/init-functions
test_nginx_config() {
if $DAEMON -t $DAEMON_OPTS >/dev/null 2>&1; then
return 0
else
$DAEMON -t $DAEMON_OPTS
return $?
fi
}
case "$1" in
start)
echo -n "Starting $DESC: "
test_nginx_config
# Check if the ULIMIT is set in /etc/default/nginx
if [ -n "$ULIMIT" ]; then
# Set the ulimits
ulimit $ULIMIT
fi
start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --pidfile /var/run/$NAME.pid \
--exec $DAEMON -- $DAEMON_OPTS || true
echo "$NAME."
;;
stop)
echo -n "Stopping $DESC: "
start-stop-daemon --stop --quiet --pidfile /var/run/$NAME.pid \
--exec $DAEMON || true
echo "$NAME."
;;
restart|force-reload)
echo -n "Restarting $DESC: "
start-stop-daemon --stop --quiet --pidfile \
/var/run/$NAME.pid --exec $DAEMON || true
sleep 1
test_nginx_config
# Check if the ULIMIT is set in /etc/default/nginx
if [ -n "$ULIMIT" ]; then
# Set the ulimits
ulimit $ULIMIT
fi
start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --pidfile \
/var/run/$NAME.pid --exec $DAEMON -- $DAEMON_OPTS || true
echo "$NAME."
;;
reload)
echo -n "Reloading $DESC configuration: "
test_nginx_config
start-stop-daemon --stop --signal HUP --quiet --pidfile /var/run/$NAME.pid \
--exec $DAEMON || true
echo "$NAME."
;;
configtest|testconfig)
echo -n "Testing $DESC configuration: "
if test_nginx_config; then
echo "$NAME."
else
exit $?
fi
;;
status)
status_of_proc -p /var/run/$NAME.pid "$DAEMON" nginx && exit 0 || exit $?
;;
*)
echo "Usage: $NAME {start|stop|restart|reload|force-reload|status|configtest}" >&2
exit 1
;;
esac
exit 0
注意要设置好nginx的启动路径 DAEMON=/usr/sbin/nginx
6、设置文件权限并增加到系统服务
sudo chmod +x ./nginx
sudo update-rc.d nginx defaults
7、启动nginx
sudo /etc/init.d/nginx
