nginx unknown directive health_check - nginx

I am new to nginx. I am using -
health_check uri=/some/uri
but on running the test with this command -
sudo /usr/sbin/nginx -t -c /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
I get the following error -
nginx: [emerg] unknown directive "health_check" in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/abc.conf:121
Can someone tell what is wrong here..? I have used apache2 to do all jing-bang but I do not have much knowledge about nginx..

According to Nginx docs :
This directive is available as part of nginx commercial subscription.

Error after compile ngx_pagespeed.so module nginx version 1.22.1

Would it be worth to put nginx http2, varnish, ngx_pagespeed module, redis all combined?
I have this doubt, yesterday I tried to install ngx_pagespeed on my server but it gave me an error in console after compile:
sudo nginx -t
nginx: [emerg] dlopen() "/usr/lib/nginx/modules/ngx_pagespeed.so" failed (/usr/lib/nginx/modules/ngx_pagespeed.so: undefined symbol: pthread_mutex_consistent_np) in /etc/nginx/nginx.conf:1
nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test failed
I'm using nginx 1.22.1, http2, varnish and redis, gzip, brotli, maybe my nginx version is not supported with this module.

Nginx.pid Permission Denied

I am using nginx through brew and it appears to be configured and working correctly - to a point. I have multiple host files (around 20 sites) and almost all of them work fine, however, any new sites added will not work.
All old host files seem to load just fine, for example with server name site.test on port 80, but any new host files added return with a "Server not found" in my web browsers.
After much troubleshooting and Google searching, I've finally found something that seems odd in my setup and it was this post that triggered it: nginx.conf and nginx.pid users and permissions. Although it doesn't seem to solve my exact problem.
When I run nginx -t I get:
nginx: [warn] the "user" directive makes sense only if the master process runs with super-user privileges, ignored in /usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf:1
nginx: the configuration file /usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf syntax is ok
nginx: [emerg] open() "/usr/local/var/run/nginx.pid" failed (13: Permission denied)
nginx: configuration file /usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf test failed
However, when I run sudo nginx -t I get:
nginx: the configuration file /usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf syntax is ok
nginx: configuration file /usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf test is successful
I have both killed nginx and stopped it gracefully with brew and restarted it with sudo, but I appear to get the same issue with nginx.pid.
When I start nginx, I use: sudo brew services start nginx
Running ps aux | grep nginx, returns:
Media32 7444 0.0 0.0 4339424 2016 ?? S 12:16pm 0:00.01 nginx: worker process
Media32 7443 0.0 0.0 4339424 1836 ?? S 12:16pm 0:00.00 nginx: worker process
root 7440 0.0 0.0 4297440 4876 ?? Ss 12:16pm 0:00.01 nginx: master process /usr/local/opt/nginx/bin/nginx -g daemon off;
Which should be correct as my user is setup in nginx.conf to be user Media32 staff.
I can provide any other code necessary, but I have been at a bit of a loss for days on this now and any help would be appreciated.
Update
I appear to have solved this by editing /etc/hosts and adding a record for the new host files, ie. 127.0.0.1 site.test and then after reloading nginx it worked, but I have never had to do this before, can anyone shed any light on why this is needed and wasn't needed prior?
I have solved this issue in macOS Catalina.
sudo brew services stop nginx
sudo chmod 777 /usr/local/var/run/nginx.pid
sudo brew services start nginx
nginx -t
Apart from the fact that setting any new host in /private/etc/hosts as
127.0.0.1 mysite.test
is a rule when adding a new host domain locally,
In my case I got a
the "user" directive makes sense only if the master process runs with super-user privileges, ignored in /usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf:2
"/usr/local/var/run/nginx.pid" failed (13: Permission denied)
bind() to 0.0.0.0:80 failed (48: Address already in use)
and the working solution was made up of these steps:
stop root process
sudo nginx -s stop
check if process stopped
ps aux | grep nginx
restart process
sudo nginx -s reload
gave me the error
nginx: [error] open() “/usr/local/var/run/nginx.pid” failed (2: No such file or directory)
probabil .pid was started with the wrong root user as I uncommented the line with path to .pid in /usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf and then I commented it back again
to start nginx as a user and not root
brew services start nginx
result at running command
ps aux | grep nginx
youruser 89212 0.0 0.0 4268280 644 s002 S+ 2:46PM 0:00.00 grep nginx
youruser 89179 0.0 0.0 4302204 1776 ?? S 2:45PM 0:00.00 nginx: worker process
youruser 89178 0.0 0.0 4275372 4368 ?? S 2:45PM 0:00.01 nginx: master process /usr/local/opt/nginx/bin/nginx -g daemon off;
And as it can be seen, the nginx process started with the expected user and not as root and the conflict between processes was gone and I could access the PHP application local domain.
Make sure you're running nginx -t as the root user using "sudo nginx -t" since the configuration checker requires root permissions.
(This solved the problem for me)

NGINX & Consul-Template in Docker

I'm having trouble with consistent service discovery using EC2, AWS, Docker, Consul-Template, Consul, and NGINX.
I have multiple services, each running on it's own EC2 instance. On these instances I run the following containers (in this order):
cAdvisor (monitoring)
node-exporter (monitoring)
Consul (running in agent mode)
Registrator
My service
Custom container running both nginx and consul-template
The custom container has the following Dockerfile:
FROM nginx:1.9
#Install Curl
RUN apt-get update -qq && apt-get -y install curl
#Install Consul Template
RUN curl -L https://github.com/hashicorp/consul-template/releases/download/v0.10.0/consul-template_0.10.0_linux_amd64.tar.gz | tar -C /usr/local/bin --strip-components 1 -zxf -
#Setup Consul Template Files
RUN mkdir /etc/consul-templates
COPY ./app.conf.tmpl /etc/consul-templates/app.conf
# Remove all other conf files from nginx
RUN rm /etc/nginx/conf.d/*
#Default Variables
ENV CONSUL consul:8500
CMD /usr/sbin/nginx -c /etc/nginx/nginx.conf && consul-template -consul=$CONSUL -template "/etc/consul-templates/app.conf:/etc/nginx/conf.d/app.conf:/usr/sbin/nginx -s reload"
The app.conf file looks like this:
{{range services}}
upstream {{.Name}} {
least_conn;{{range service .Name}}
server {{.Address}}:{{.Port}};{{end}}
}
{{end}}
server {
listen 80 default_server;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
location / {
proxy_pass http://cart/cart/;
}
location /cart {
proxy_pass http://cart/cart;
}
{{range services}}
location /api/{{.Name}} {
proxy_read_timeout 180;
proxy_pass http://{{.Name}}/{{.Name}};
}
{{end}}
}
Everything seems to start up perfectly ok, but at some point (which I'm yet to identify) after start up, consul-template seems to return that there are no available servers for a particular service. This means that the upstream section for that service contains no servers, and I end up with this in the logs:
2015/12/04 07:09:34 [emerg] 77#77: no servers are inside upstream in /etc/nginx/conf.d/app.conf:336
nginx: [emerg] no servers are inside upstream in /etc/nginx/conf.d/app.conf:336
2015/12/04 07:09:34 [ERR] (runner) error running command: exit status 1
Consul Template returned errors:
1 error(s) occurred:
* exit status 1
2015/12/04 07:09:34 [DEBUG] (logging) setting up logging
2015/12/04 07:09:34 [DEBUG] (logging) config:

"name": "consul-template",
"level": "WARN",
"syslog": false,
"syslog_facility": "LOCAL0"
}
2015/12/04 07:09:34 [emerg] 7#7: no servers are inside upstream in /etc/nginx/conf.d/app.conf:336
nginx: [emerg] no servers are inside upstream in /etc/nginx/conf.d/app.conf:336
After this, NGINX will no longer accept requests.
I'm sure I'm missing something obvious, but I've tied myself in mental knots about the sequence of events etc. What I think might be happening is that NGINX crashes, but because consul-template is still running, the Docker container doesn't restart. I don't actually care if the container itself restarts, or if just NGINX restarts.
Can someone help?
Consul Template will exit once the script it runs after writing returns a non-zero exit code. See here for the documentation.
The documentation suggests to put a || true just after the restart (or reload) command. This will keep Consul Template running independent of the exit code.
You could consider wrapping the restart in its own shell script that first tests the configuration (with nginx -t) before triggering a reload. You could even move the initial start of nginx to this script as it only makes sense to start nginx once the first (valid) configuration has been written?!

Nginx permission denied

I want to deploy my flask service in a server with centOS 7. So I followed this tutorial - https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-serve-flask-applications-with-uwsgi-and-nginx-on-centos-7 .
After runnning systemctl start nginx command, I got this error:
nginx: [emerg] bind() to 0.0.0.0:5000 failed (13: Permission denied)
My nginx.conf file:
server {
listen 5000;
server_name _;
location / {
include uwsgi_params;
uwsgi_pass unix:/root/fiproxy/fiproxyproject/fiproxy.sock;
}
}
Note: flask service and wsgi work ok. And I've tried to run nginx with superuser and the error remains.
After search a lot in Internet, I found a solution to my problem.
I ran this command to get all used ports in my machine: semanage port -l.
After that, I filtered the output with: semanage port -l | grep 5000.
I realized that this port 5000 is used by commplex_main_port_t, I searched in speedguide and I found: 5000 tcp,udp **UPnP**.
Conclusion, maybe my problem was bind a standard port.
To add your desired port use this command:
sudo semanage port -a -t http_port_t -p tcp [yourport]
Now run nginx with sudo:
sudo systemctl stop nginx
sudo systemctl start nginx
The Nginx master process needs root permission. Because it needs bind port.
You need start Nginx under root user.
Then you can define the user of child processes in nginx.conf.

Docker: Nginx and php5-fpm dockers are not talking

I’d like to make a fully dockerized Drupal install. My first step is to get containers running with Nginx and php5-fpm, both Debian based. I’m on CoreOS alpha channel (using Digital Ocean.)
My Dockerfiles are the following:
Nginx:
FROM debian
MAINTAINER fvhemert
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y nginx && echo "\ndaemon off;" >> /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
CMD ["nginx"]
EXPOSE 80
This container build and runs nicely. I see the default Nginx page on my server ip.
Php5-fpm:
FROM debian
MAINTAINER fvhemert
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y \
php5-fpm \
&& sed 's/;daemonize = yes/daemonize = no/' -i /etc/php5/fpm/php-fpm.conf
CMD ["php5-fpm"]
EXPOSE 9000
This container also builds with no problems and it keeps running when started.
I start the php5-fpm container first with:
docker run -d --name php5-fpm freek/php5-fpm:1
Ad then I start Nginx,, linked to php5-fpm:
docker run -d -p 80:80 --link php5-fpm:phpserver --name nginx freek/nginx-php:1
The linking seems to work, there is an entry in /etc/hosts with name phpserver. Both dockers run:
core#dockertest ~ $ docker ps
CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
fd1a9ae0f1dd freek/nginx-php:4 "nginx" 38 minutes ago Up 38 minutes 0.0.0.0:80->80/tcp nginx
3bd12b3761b9 freek/php5-fpm:2 "php5-fpm" 38 minutes ago Up 38 minutes 9000/tcp php5-fpm
I have adjusted some of the config files. For the Nginx container I edited /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default and changed:
server {
#listen 80; ## listen for ipv4; this line is default and implied
#listen [::]:80 default_server ipv6only=on; ## listen for ipv6
root /usr/share/nginx/www;
index index.html index.htm index.php;
(I added the index.php)
And further on:
location ~ \.php$ {
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
# # NOTE: You should have "cgi.fix_pathinfo = 0;" in php.ini
#
# # With php5-cgi alone:
fastcgi_pass phpserver:9000;
# # With php5-fpm:
# fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php5-fpm.sock;
fastcgi_index index.php;
include fastcgi_params;
}
In the php5-fpm docker I changed /etc/php5/fpm/php.ini:
cgi.fix_pathinfo=0
php5-fpm runs:
[21-Nov-2014 06:15:29] NOTICE: fpm is running, pid 1
[21-Nov-2014 06:15:29] NOTICE: ready to handle connections
I also changed index.html to index.php, it looks like this (/usr/share/nginx/www/index.php):
<html>
<head>
<title>Welcome to nginx!</title>
</head>
<body bgcolor="white" text="black">
<center><h1>Welcome to nginx!</h1></center>
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
</body>
</html>
I have scanned the 9000 port from the Nginx docker, it appears as closed. Not a good sign of course:
root#fd1a9ae0f1dd:/# nmap -p 9000 phpserver
Starting Nmap 6.00 ( http://nmap.org ) at 2014-11-21 06:49 UTC

Host is up (0.00022s latency).
PORT STATE SERVICE
9000/tcp closed cslistener
MAC Address: 02:42:AC:11:00:5E (Unknown)
Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 0.13 seconds
The Nginx logs:
root#fd1a9ae0f1dd:/# vim /var/log/nginx/error.log
2014/11/20 14:43:46 [error] 13#0: *1 connect() failed (111: Connection refused) while connecting to upstream, client: 194.171.252.110, server: localhost, request: "GET / HTTP/1.1", upstream: "fastcgi://127.0.0.1:9000", host: "128.199.60.95"

Yes, that goes wrong and I keep getting a 502 bad gateway error when browsing to my Nginx instance.
My question is: What exactly goes wrong? My guess is that I’m missing some setting in the php config files.
EDIT FOR MORE DETAILS:
This is the result (from inside the php5-fpm container, after apt-get install net-tools):
root#3bd12b3761b9:/# netstat -tapen
Active Internet connections
(servers and established) Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address

From inside the Nginx container:
root#fd1a9ae0f1dd:/# netstat -tapen
Active Internet connections
(servers and established) Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State User Inode PID/Program
name tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:80 0.0.0.0:*

EDIT2:
Progression!
In the php5-fpm container, in the file:
/etc/php5/fpm/pool.d/www.conf
I changed the listen argument from some socket name to:
listen = 9000
Now when I go to my webpage I get the error:
"No input file specified."
Probably I have trailing / wrong somewhere. I'll look into it more closely!
EDIT3:
So I have rebuild the dockers with the above mentioned alterations and it seems that they are talking. However, my webpage tells me: "file not found."
I'm very sure it has to do with the document that nginx sents to php-fpm but I have no idea how it should look like. I used the defaults when using the socket method which always worked. Now it doesn't work anymore. What should be in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default under location ~ .php$ { ?
The reason it doesn't work is, as you have discovered yourself, that nginx only sends the path of the PHP file to PHP-FPM, not the file itself (which would be quite inefficient). The solution is to use a third, data-only VOLUME container to host the files, and then mount it on both docker instances.
FROM debian
VOLUME /var/www
CMD ['true']
Build the above Dockerfile and create an instance (call it for example: storage-www), then run both the nginx and the PHP-FPM containers with the option:
--volumes-from storage-www
That will work if you run both containers on the same physical server.
But you still could use different servers, if you put that data-only container on a networked file-system, such as GlusterFS, which is quite efficient and can be distributed over a large-scale network.
Hope that helps.
Update:
As of 2015, the best way to make persistent links between containers is to use docker-compose.
So, I have tested all settings and none worked between dockers while they did work with the same settings on 1 server (or also in one docker probably). Then I found out that php-fpm is not taking php files from nginx, it is receiving the path, if it can't find the same file in its own container it generates a "file not found". See here for more information: https://code.google.com/p/sna/wiki/NginxWithPHPFPM So that solves the question but not the problem, sadly. This is quite annoying for people that want to do load balancing with multiple php-fpm servers, they'd have to rsync everything or something like that. I hope someday I'll find a better solution. Thanx for the replies.
EDIT: Perhaps I can mount the same volume in both containers and get it to work that way. That won't be a solution when using multiple servers though.
When you are in your container as
root#fd1a9ae0f1dd:/#
, check the ports used with
netstat -tapen | grep ":9000 "
or
netstat -lntpu | grep ":9000 "
or the same commands without the grep
