i have compiled nginx 1.5.10 with the spdy module on centos 6.5 and it is operating without a problem, as far as i know except, that spdy is apparently not being used.
i have added the 'spdy' option to the listen directive in nginx.conf and restarted the server, yet the various spdy checking methods, such as the firefox plugin that is available and also the website: https://spdycheck.org/
both show that spdy is not being used on my site.
the line in nginx.conf is:
listen 443 ssl spdy default_server;
i saw this thread: How to set up SPDY Protocol over Nginx?
and looked to see if i needed to change the DAEMON or PATH lines in /etc/init.d/nginx - yet in my versions those lines are not present at all.
the output of nginx -V is:
nginx version: nginx/1.5.10

SPDY/3.1 isn't supported by Firefox 26. The support was added to Firefox in version 27, see release notes.

I am working on implementing http/2 for an ecommerce website my company made. I'm hosting it on debian jessie and found that it's now pretty easy to get nginx from the backports repo which was built against openssl 1.0.2 to support ALPN (which is necessary these days to work with chrome).
So I upgraded my libssl and then my nginx. To my great surprise, nginx now seems to be serving my content through http2 even though I didn't add that keyword to the config. Chrome's dev tools show h2 in the protocol column of the network tab.
Normally I would be happy about that, but I'd like to make some comparison measurements between http1.1 and http2. How can I force it to serve http1.1 again (temporarily) to make my measurements?
Edit: adding output of nginx -V to be specific about my version

According to the documentation:
The http2 parameter (1.9.5) configures the port to accept HTTP/2 connections.
Thus any virtual server configured on this port will accept HTTP/2 connections. If you want to configure some hosts with HTTP/2 but other without, then you have to use different IP or ports.
I just compiled a custom version of nginx for our new project.

On the browsers from my work office http2 works fine. When I go home and test on my pc, http2 does not work in any browser. I cannot understand where the problem is.
I have the same windows 7, same browsers, everything the same.
Can somebody point me out the problem I am facing ?
Many Thanks.
Can think of two reasons why this might happen:
You are using anti virus software at home which performs MITM interception to enable it to scan traffic. See here: https://serverfault.com/questions/752767/trying-to-setup-http2-on-apache.
You are using a LoadBalancer or other such infrastructure that sits in front of your nginx server, when accessed externally.
I need to install push stream module for nignx.

Check you nginx install:
nginx -V
This command view all compile options etc.
You will can check nginx-push-stream-module module
Your build looks good so I'd be checking that you don't have multiple nginx binaries in your $PATH that your service could be executing instead of your new build.
whereis nginx
You've installed your new binary into /usr/local/sbin, so check you haven't forgotten to remove older nginx distributed packages that could interfere.
rpm -qa | grep ^nginx
If all else fails, move the git repo out of your nginx source and try again:
git clone https://github.com/wandenberg/nginx-push-stream-module.git
wget http://nginx.org/download/nginx-1.7.12.tar.gz
tar -xvf nginx-1.7.12.tar.gz

Today, I installed mod_security for nginx. I added the following block to /etc/nginx/nginx:
server {
listen 80;
server_name localhost;
location / {
ModSecurityEnabled on;
ModSecurityConfig modsecurity.conf;
}
}
After restarting Nginx, I got the following error:
nginx: [emerg] unknown directive "ModSecurityEnabled" in /etc/nginx/conf.d/nginx.conf:6
nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test failed

What is going wrong?
According to the official documentation:
The extensibility model of the nginx server does not include dynamically loaded modules, thus ModSecurity must be compiled with the source code of the main server. Since nginx is available on multiple Unix-based platforms (and also on Windows), for now the recommended way of obtaining ModSecurity for nginx is compilation in the designated environment.
Source: https://github.com/SpiderLabs/ModSecurity/wiki/Reference-Manual#Installation_for_NGINX
You can not just add some lines in nginx.conf to get it working.
You might also want to consider the following if you want to be helped more efficiently and in the meantime participate in making Stack Overflow a better place:
Read the docs before asking for help (it took me 3 minutes to figure out the way it works).
Choose a more explicit title for your issue.
Try to auto-correct the content to make it easier to read.
Good luck!
I did this on NGinx plus, so not sure if entirely identical but it seems so ...
Yum install nginx-modsecurity (for nginx plus its nginx-plus-module-modsecurity)
Add load_module modules/ngx_http_modsecurity_module.so; to top level of /etc/nginx/nginx.conf - Outside of the server block
Then, within your server block
modsecurity on;
modsecurity_rules_file /some/path/to/rules/modsecurity-recommended.conf
You can get the suggested contents for modsecurirty-recommended from: https://docs.nginx.com/nginx-waf/admin-guide/nginx-plus-modsecurity-waf-owasp-crs/
This is working for me at the moment, hope it helps
I am using drupal 7, nginx with SSL, php-fpm to serve static pages. I would like to get the maximum security & speed from my nginx installation. Thats why I have decided to install it from source and leave unnecessary modules. can someone help me to select the modules please? here is what i am choosing...
./configure --user=nginx --group=nginx --prefix=/etc/nginx
