Can't start nginx

Server NGINX
1

Hello,

I’ve tried a serveral times to start nginx but it always ends with no
happy end.

Download and compiling is no problem for me.

So here goes my way that i do it:

  1. cd /tmp
    wget wget http://sysoev.ru/nginx/nginx-0.7.61.tar.gz
    tar xvfz nginx-0.7.61.tar.gz
    cd nginx-0.7.61

./configure
–prefix=/usr
–conf-path=/etc/nginx/nginx.conf
–http-log-path=/var/log/nginx/access_log
–error-log-path=/var/log/nginx/error_log
–pid-path=/var/run/nginx.pid
–http-client-body-temp-path=/var/tmp/nginx/client
–http-proxy-temp-path=/var/tmp/nginx/proxy
–http-fastcgi-temp-path=/var/tmp/nginx/fastcgi
–with-md5-asm --with-md5=/usr/include
–with-http_realip_module
–with-http_ssl_module
–with-http_stub_status_module

make
make install

  1. vi /etc/init.d/nginx

#! /bin/sh

esac

exit 0

  1. chmod 755 /etc/init.d/nginx

  2. /etc/init.d/nginx start

But it won’t start because of this error here:

(root)-(/tmp/nginx-0.7.61) $ /etc/init.d/nginx start
/etc/init.d/nginx: line 1: N: command not found

Try this:

sh -x /etc/init.d/nginx start

and see what happen or put it in a reply, as you wish.

Wait, are u using Ubuntu?! If so, then do this first:

rm -f /bin/sh; ln -s /bin/bash /bin/sh (as root user)
