Nginx windows

Server NGINX

Hello I wonder if this is possible to fix in the future and if somebody
gonna fix that out?

Known issues

Although several workers can be run, only one of them actually does

any work.
A worker can handle no more than 1024 simultaneous connections.

As I known, in windows :

  1. several workers will be work as only one workers
  2. only work in select()

it only a version CAN WORK , not a good one .

Not really.

You mean nginx in *nix only uses one worker and can only handle 1024
simultaneous connections? When did this happen?

Not really. Though fixing this will require relatively large
amount of work and not considered as a high-priority task.

Also seems like user directive does not work in latest 1.0.4 it would be
nice to have it working :expressionless: it is very helpfull when it comes to
security.

No. I mean it’s how nginx under Windows works, not Windows bugs.

You can nginx/Windows as any user using Windows runas application.
Under Unix user directive is more important since you have to run
nginx as root to get access to the 80 port.
