  • To enable theHTTP basic status module:--with-http_stub_status_module
  • Enable the HTTP gzip static file compression module: –with-http_gzip_static_module
  • Enable the HTTP/2 module: –with-http_v2_module

zlib1g-dev: the HTTP gzip module requires the zlib library.

Use Systemd to manage the OpenResty service

Writing a Service file

Create an openretsx. service file in /usr/lib/systemd/system. The file contents are as follows:

# Stop dance for OpenResty
# = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = =
#
# ExecStop sends SIGSTOP (graceful stop) to OpenResty's nginx process.
# If, after 5s (--retry QUIT/5) nginx is still running, systemd takes control
# and sends SIGTERM (fast shutdown) to the main process.
# After another 5s (TimeoutStopSec=5), and if nginx is alive, systemd sends
# SIGKILL to all the remaining processes in the process group (KillMode=mixed).
#
# nginx signals reference doc:
# http://nginx.org/en/docs/control.html
