3. Enter the installation package Directory

[root@bogon src]# cd pcre-8.35

4. Compile and install

[root@bogon pcre-8.35]# ./configure
[root@bogon pcre-8.35]# make && make install

5. Check pcre version

[root@bogon pcre-8.35]# pcre-config --version

##3. Install nginx

1. Download nginx, download address:

[root@bogon src]# wget http://nginx.org/download/nginx-1.6.2.tar.gz

2. Unzip the installation package

[root@bogon src]# tar zxvf nginx-1.6.2.tar.gz

3. Enter the installation package directory

[root@bogon src]# cd nginx-1.6.2

4. Compile and install

[root@bogon nginx-1.6.2]# ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/webserver/nginx --with-http_stub_status_module --with-http_ssl_module --with-pcre=/usr/local/src/pcre-8.35
[root@bogon nginx-1.6.2]# make
[root@bogon nginx-1.6.2]# make install

5. Check nginx version

[root@bogon nginx-1.6.2]# /usr/local/webserver/nginx/sbin/nginx -v

At this point, nginx installation is completed.

4. nginx configuration

Create the user www for running nginx:

[root@bogon conf]# /usr/sbin/groupadd www 
[root@bogon conf]# /usr/sbin/useradd -g www www

Configure nginx.conf and change /usr/local/webserver/ Replace nginx/conf/nginx.conf with the following content

[root@bogon conf]# cat /usr/local/webserver/nginx/conf/nginx.conf
user www www;
worker_processes 2; #设置值和cpu核心数一致
error_log /usr/local/webserver/nginx/logs/nginx_error.log crit; #日志位置和日志级别
pid /usr/local/webserver/nginx/nginx.pid;
#specifies the value for maximum file descriptors that can be opened by this process.
worker_rlimit_nofile 65535;
events
{
 use epoll;
 worker_connections 65535;
}
http
{
 include mime.types;
 default_type application/octet-stream;
 log_format main '$remote_addr - $remote_user [$time_local] "$request" '
  '$status $body_bytes_sent "$http_referer" '

 #limit_zone crawler $binary_remote_addr 10m;
 #下面是server虚拟主机的配置
 server
 {
 listen 80;#监听端口
 server_name localhost;#域名
 index index.html index.htm index.php;
 root /usr/local/webserver/nginx/html;#站点目录
 location ~ .*\.(php|php5)?$
 {
 #fastcgi_pass unix:/tmp/php-cgi.sock;
 fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
 fastcgi_index index.php;
 include fastcgi.conf;
 }
 location ~ .*\.(gif|jpg|jpeg|png|bmp|swf|ico)$
 {

 # access_log off;
 }
 location ~ .*\.(js|css)?$
 {
 expires 15d;
 # access_log off;
 }
 access_log off;
 }
}

Check the correctness of the configuration file ngnix.conf command:

[root@bogon conf]# /usr/local/webserver/nginx/sbin/nginx -t
