Manually Install Required Software

Note:

  • You will need to create directories manually by doing a manual install such as sites-available / sites-enabled / nginx.conf edits / conf.d/vhosts.conf / Symlinks etc its not worth it you are not experienced I implore you to use my auto install bash script as it does it all.

  • Lets start with the web server Nginx, we will use the latest mainline version

  1. Add the repo sources and grab the signing key for NGINX

nano /etc/apt/sources.list

  • at the bottom add:

deb http://nginx.org/packages/mainline/ubuntu/ xenial nginx

deb-src http://nginx.org/packages/mainline/ubuntu/ xenial nginx

  • Save file

cd /tmp

curl -O https://nginx.org/keys/nginx_signing.key && apt-key add ./nginx_signing.key

apt update

apt install nginx -y

  • Check Version

nginx -V
