Windows under the Nginx installation configuration tutorial

First go to the official website to download nginx1.0.11 version of Windows, the official website to download

Once downloaded to the package, unzip the nginx-nginx1.0.11.zip package to your favorite root directory and change the directory name to nginx.

Then, do the following:

cd nginx

start nginx

The nginx service is started. Open the task manager and look at the nginx.exe process. There are two processes that will show up, occupying system resources, which is quite small. Then open your browser and type http://127.0.0.1/ to see the nginx welcome page, which is very friendly

nginx -s stop //  stop nginx
nginx -s reload //  Reload the configuration file 
nginx -s quit //  exit nginx

The next step is to configure the conf file for nginx.

Here is my configuration:

#user nobody;
worker_processes 1;

#error_log logs/error.log;
#error_log logs/error.log notice;
#error_log logs/error.log info;

#pid logs/nginx.pid;


events {
worker_connections 1024;
}
