Hi first time trying to compile Nginx with ngx\_http\_upstream\_keepalive  
module support and seems I am getting an error at make stage while  
compiling with Nginx v1.1.19 ?

configure line:

./configure --sbin-path=/usr/local/sbin  
–conf-path=/usr/local/nginx/conf/nginx.conf --with-http\_ssl\_module  
–with-http\_gzip\_static\_module --with-http\_stub\_status\_module  
–with-http\_sub\_module --with-http\_addition\_module  
–with-http\_secure\_link\_module --with-http\_flv\_module

–add-module=…/ngx\_http\_upstream\_keepalive-d9ac9ad67f45  
–with-openssl=…/openssl-1.0.0e --with-openssl-opt=“enable-tlsext”

the error at make stage

You don’t need separate upstream keepalive module, it’s already  
included into nginx since 1.1.4 and compiled in by default.
