NGINX(8)                  BSD System Manager's Manual                 NGINX(8)
NAME
     nginx -- HTTP and reverse proxy server, mail proxy server
SYNOPSIS
     nginx [-?hqTtVv] [-c file] [-e file] [-g directives] [-p prefix]
           [-s signal]
DESCRIPTION
     nginx (pronounced ``engine x'') is an HTTP and reverse proxy server, a
     mail proxy server, and a generic TCP/UDP proxy server.  It is known for
     its high performance, stability, rich feature set, simple configuration,
     and low resource consumption.
     The options are as follows:
     -?, -h         Print help.
     -c file        Use an alternative configuration file.
     -e file        Use an alternative error log file.  Special value stderr
                    indicates that the standard error output should be used.
     -g directives  Set global configuration directives.  See EXAMPLES for
                    details.
     -p prefix      Set the prefix path.  The default value is /usr/share.
     -q             Suppress non-error messages during configuration testing.
     -s signal      Send a signal to the master process.  The argument signal
                    can be one of: stop, quit, reopen, reload.  The following
                    table shows the corresponding system signals:
                    stop    SIGTERM
                    quit    SIGQUIT
                    reopen  SIGUSR1
                    reload  SIGHUP
     -T             Same as -t, but additionally dump configuration files to
                    standard output.
     -t             Do not run, just test the configuration file.  nginx
                    checks the configuration file syntax and then tries to
                    open files referenced in the configuration file.
     -V             Print the nginx version, compiler version, and configure
                    script parameters.
     -v             Print the nginx version.
SIGNALS
     The master process of nginx can handle the following signals:
     SIGINT, SIGTERM  Shut down quickly.
     SIGHUP           Reload configuration, start the new worker process with
                      a new configuration, and gracefully shut down old worker
                      processes.
     SIGQUIT          Shut down gracefully.
     SIGUSR1          Reopen log files.
     SIGUSR2          Upgrade the nginx executable on the fly.
     SIGWINCH         Shut down worker processes gracefully.
     While there is no need to explicitly control worker processes normally,
     they support some signals too:
     SIGTERM          Shut down quickly.
     SIGQUIT          Shut down gracefully.
     SIGUSR1          Reopen log files.
DEBUGGING LOG
     To enable a debugging log, reconfigure nginx to build with debugging:
           ./configure --with-debug ...
     and then set the debug level of the error_log:
           error_log /path/to/log debug;
     It is also possible to enable the debugging for a particular IP address:
           events {
                   debug_connection 127.0.0.1;
           }
ENVIRONMENT
     The NGINX environment variable is used internally by nginx and should not
     be set directly by the user.
FILES
     /run/nginx.pid
             Contains the process ID of nginx.  The contents of this file are
             not sensitive, so it can be world-readable.
     /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
             The main configuration file.
     /var/log/nginx/error.log
             Error log file.
EXIT STATUS
     Exit status is 0 on success, or 1 if the command fails.
EXAMPLES
     Test configuration file ~/mynginx.conf with global directives for PID and
     quantity of worker processes:
           nginx -t -c ~/mynginx.conf \
                   -g "pid /var/run/mynginx.pid; worker_processes 2;"
