I’m sure it will help if you tell Igor what version you are running,
what platform you are running it on, what other configure options you
used, and what exactly happens.

I can confirm that there appears to be a bug or three.
I am running Linux 2.6.18-128.1.6.el5 #1 SMP Wed Apr 1 09:10:25 EDT 2009 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
I was running nginx 0.7.53 but configured 06.36 with
./configure —conf-path=/etc/nginx
./configure --conf-path=/etc/nginx/nginx.conf

I was running nginx 0.7.53 but configured 06.36 with
./configure —conf-path=/etc/nginx
It compiled properly but after running make install, nginv -V still
showed that 0.7.53 was installed with my old configure options.
Further, make install copied the config files to /etc, not to
/etc/nginx. I then tried to copy objs/nginx to /usr/local/sbin and got
an error:
cp objs/nginx /usr/local/sbin
cp: overwrite /usr/local/sbin/nginx'? y cp: cannot create regular file /usr/local/sbin/nginx’: Text file busy
I stopped nginx and was able to copy the file and confirmed that now
nginx -V showed
nginx -V
nginx version: nginx/0.6.36
built by gcc 4.1.2 20080704 (Red Hat 4.1.2-44)
configure arguments: --conf-path=/etc/nginx
but…etc/nginx, which I had created, was empty. The files were in /etc.
I tried the same with
./configure —conf-path=/etc/nginx/etc
This time the config files were copied to /etc/nginx.
Again, make install failed to install the new binary so I did it
manually again, and also manually copied the config files to
/etc/nginx/etc.
Starting nginx it was clear that it was not using /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
or /etc/nginx/etc/nginx.conf, but was reading
/usr/local/nginx/conf/nginx.conf. I had different numbers of workers in
each so I am certain.
I tired running configure with a trailing slash at the end of the path
and nothing changed. The config files were installed one level up and
the binary was not installed. Starting nginx always resulted in it
reading nginx.conf from the default location.

I always use default location.
Does that explain why make install failed?
What do you mean by failed ? If this:
cp objs/nginx /usr/local/sbin
cp: overwrite /usr/local/sbin/nginx'? y cp: cannot create regular file/usr/local/sbin/nginx’: Text file busy
then it’s standard unix feature for running process - you need to do
mv /usr/local/sbin/nginx /usr/local/sbin/nginx.old
cp objs/nginx /usr/local/sbin/

No. I figured it out.
I always install nginx in my config as /usr/local/sbin/nginx.
Since I didn’t specify in the test config, It was installed as
/usr/local/nginx/sbin/nginx. I didn’t realize this. I usually configure
–sbin-path=/usr/local/sbin/nginx
When I saw
whereis nginx
nginx: /etc/nginx /usr/local/sbin/nginx /usr/local/sbin/nginx.old
/usr/local/nginx
it didn’t show the binary in /usr/local/nginx/sbin/
So it appeared to me as if the binary had not been installed, because
when I ran
[root@mercury nginx-0.6.36]# nginx -v
nginx version: nginx/0.7.54
I understand why that is. I was evidently having a series of blond
moments today.
Sorry.
I can confirm that when I configured correctly
./configure --conf-path=/etc/nginx/nginx.conf
and run new binary
/usr/local/nginx/sbin/nginx
that it works as expected.
