I am having a website which is working on nginx already .
nginx conf file is in /etc/nginx.conf folder.
Now i want to integrate lua into that project so i installed Openresty .
I created a folder with name "work" as per instruction in doc .And website is working fine at port 8080 as per instructions.
Now i want to use same code into my /etc/nginx/nginx.conf file.
like i can use statements like 'content_by_lua ' there .
I am not able to configure this .
I am getting below error.
Starting nginx: nginx: [emerg] unknown directive "content_by_lua" in /etc/nginx/nginx.conf:25
nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test failed
Let me know what i am doing wrong
I started from the same point. Had nginx, had lua, installed openresty and went from there. I was getting the exact same error. After spending considerable time, trying to make the openresty packages play nice with my nginx installation, I found it easiest to uninstall nginx and move forward just with openresty's nginx. Just make backups of your current nginx.conf and any vhost files.
When installing openresty I was sure to include the --with-luajit option. Set up a "hello, world" test, and everything worked wonderfully. My biggest complaint was not being able to start and stop nginx as a service anymore. The issue is a lack of init.d file in the openresty installation. Luckily I ran across this:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/openresty-en/7UOz-y77CY4
just change the name to openresty (instead of openresty.init.d) and place in /etc/init.d/ (assumed for Ubuntu). and start/stop/reload as sudo service openresty start
The error shows that your nginx don't compiled with the right module.
try type nginx -V to see if your nginx configured with nginx_lua_module
Maybe you should find out where the openresty nginx is and use this nginx instead of the default one.

I'm trying to install certbot. I'm using Centos8 and following instructions from https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-secure-nginx-with-let-s-encrypt-on-centos-8
The error occurs when I run sudo certbot --nginx The error I get is:
The nginx plugin is not working; there may be problems with your existing config uration.
The error was: NoInstallationError("Could not find a usable 'nginx' binary.
Ensure nginx exists, the binary is executable, and your PATH is set correctly.",)
I recently installed Ghost 1.8.4 and Nginx on my AWS ec2 Ubuntu 16.04 server. When I loaded my blog site, it correctly took me to the Ghost home page, from where I logged into Ghost admin. On the admin screen, there was a message to update.
I ran ghost update in putty
The update appeared to be successful, but when I returned to my blog site, I received the following error:
502 Bad Gateway
nginx/1.10.3 (Ubuntu)
Does anyone know a probably cause of this error and how to resolve?
I checked some posts, which suggested I should have turned Ghost off before the update. If this is true, is my ghost installation now corrupted?
I went to my ghost directory in /var/www/ghost and tried to run:
sudo service ghost start
but it returned:
Failed to start ghost.service: Unit ghost.service not found
and trying to stop, returns Unit ghost.service not loaded. Am I running the command from the correct location?
I've experienced 502 issues with ghost behind nginx several times over a few years of running it. I'm not sure if the cause of mine today is the same as yours, but what I observed was that after a restart ghost had changed its port number to one different than what its nginx config was listening on.
I followed these directions from https://web.archive.org/web/20200807095031/https://www.danwalker.com/running-ghost-on-a-5-digital-ocean-vps/ which resolved it for me:
See which port ghost is running on:
sudo netstat -plotn
Check that it matches the proxy_pass in the nginx config file in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled.
In my case the port in the nginx config had incremented to 2369 while the actual node process was running on 2368. Changing the proxy_pass port back to 2368 in my ghost blog's nginx config file resolved the issue for me.
I ran into the same problem after upgrading ghost.
Make sure the port number configured in your ghost's config file and the proxy_pass in your ghost site's nginx configuration files match.
Check the port number in
/var/www/ghost/config.production.json matches the proxy_pass port in the nginx config files.
/var/www/ghost/system/files/<yourDomainName>.<extension>.conf
/var/www/ghost/system/files/<yourDomainName>.<extension>-ssl.conf
In my case I had to change 2368 to 2369 in the nginx config files to fix the issue.
Make sure you restart your ghost and nginx after you make the changes.
# restart your ghost site
cd /var/www/ghost/
ghost restart
# restart nginx
sudo systemctl restart nginx
Hope this helps someone.
Apparently when I posted this issue it was due to a bug in the Ghost CLI that the ghost team were in the process of fixing.
They provided me with these instructions to run on my server:
systemctl stop ghost_www-blogwebsite-com
ghost update --force
The resulting output:
stopping Ghost [skipped]
Removing old Ghost versions [skipped]
This fixed the problem and updated to the correct version.
So I was trying some settings of the Nginx PageSpeed module, but there was two settings that I couldn't set for some reason.
pagespeed NumRewriteThreads 2;
pagespeed NumExpensiveRewriteThreads 2;
For some reason these two settings always throw error when I try to restart or test my nginx config.
sudo service nginx restart
[FAIL] Restarting nginx: nginx failed!
When I test the file I get this:
"pagespeed" directive "NumRewriteThreads" not recognized or too many arguments in /etc/nginx/nginx.conf:40
nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test failed
My Nginx version is the following:
sudo /usr/sbin/nginx -v
nginx version: nginx/1.6.0
The settings appear in the PageSpeed docs as well, so I'm wondering if there's something I am missing to make them work.
https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/module/system#tune_thread
I've entered a bug for this: ngx_pagespeed #728. I think it's just an oversight.
I am very new to nginx and lua .i have installed Openresty .
below is my code in nginx.conf file .
server{
location /hellolua {
default_type 'text/plain';
content_by_lua ' local name = ngx.var.arg_name or "Anonymous"
ngx.say("Hello, ", name, "!") ';
}
}
When i am running sudo service nginx start i am getting error Starting nginx: nginx: [emerg] unknown directive "content_by_lua" in /etc/nginx/nginx.conf:24
nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test failedt
Please let me know what i am missing .
It seems to me, as if you haven't installed the right module? ngx_lua (http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpLuaModule)
You mention OpenResty. Did you configure it with lua? If not, the guide is here(http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpLuaModule#Installation).
Quick resumé:
The ngx_openresty bundle can be used to install Nginx, ngx_lua, either one of the standard Lua 5.1 interpreter or LuaJIT 2.0, as well as a package of powerful companion Nginx modules. The basic installation step is a simple ./configure --with-luajit && make && make install.
You can manually compile ngx_lua into nginx too, the full guide is in the link too.
After comment-discussing - I removed the irrelevant part of the answer.
By default, OpenResty's nginx is installed into the path /usr/local/openresty/nginx/sbin/nginx. Your system's default nginx init configurations need an update to point to the right locations.
I'm just starting to explore nginx on my ubuntu 10.04. I installed nginx and I'm able to get the "Welcome to Nginx" page on localhost. However I'm not able to add a new server_name.
Even when I make the changes in site-available/default. I also tried reloading/restarting nginx, but nothing works.
To build on mark's answer, Debian/Ubuntu distros default configuration file has an include /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/*; directive with site configuration file stored in /etc/nginx/sites-available/, a default site is usually included in that dir.
For examples beyond the default config, follow nginx beginner's guide or see wiki.nginx.org for more details.
After creating a new configuration in sites-available, create a symbolic link with this command, assuming that your conf file is named "myapp" and nginx is at /etc/nginx (could also be at /usr/local/etc/nginx):
ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/myapp /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/myapp
By the way, you could always create your conf file directly in sites-enabled but the recommended way above allows you to "enable and disable" sites on the server very quickly without actually moving/deleting your conf files.
P.S: Don't trust the tutorials: check your configuration!
P.P.S: You can use the command nginx -t to test your sites conf and nginx -s reload to reload the conf.
The usual way to add another site in Nginx in Ubuntu is to copy the sites-available/default file to sites-available/new-site-name, then create a symbolic link in sites-enabled to sites-available/new-site-name.
In the new configuration file, you need to edit the listen and server directives. Use listen to specify the IP address and port, and the server directive to specify the hostnames. For more details, see HttpCoremodule.
