Hi,
Im thinking in building for nginx the upstream_fair module.
I just want to make sure I got the instructions right.
- Download all needed bits for nginx, including the server source code
- Buuild the NGINX server aloing with the upstream_fair module by
adding
the following: --add-module=src/upstream_fair
3, make && make install
There were some mentions about a patch for the std balance module:
http://wiki.nginx.org/NginxHttpUpstreamRequestHashModule - what is this
patch about and do I need to patch manually the nginx source code for
upstream_fair ?
Im planning in using Nginx 0.7.65 on Solaris 10 x86/sparc.
thanks,
Stefan
No, you don’t need to patch Nginx itself to use upstream_fair. The
instructions you posted should be enough. The patch you mentioned is for
the upstream_hash module only.
cheers. worked fine, I mean compiled fine.
All configuration goes under nginx.conf ?

Yup. Or a file included from there.
