#31004: nginx should not own nginx.conf ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- Reporter: ast@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.0.1 Keywords: | Port: nginx ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- Description changed by ryandesign@…: Old description:
Just hit this one today when I was trying to configure nginx with SSL on my development machine. Had made all the required changes to configure a new server instance in my nginx.conf (I don't use subconfigs on this box), and then got this message:
{{{ valkyrie$ sudo nginx -s reload nginx: [emerg] unknown directive "ssl" in /opt/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf:99 }}}
Finding this page [http://kete.net.nz/documentation/topics/show/167 -configure-nginx-to-use-ssl], I followed the instructions, but once I'd deactivated nginx, ''it deleted my nginx.conf file! ''
Even RPM got this right over 15 years ago, so I can't understand why this package has so much trouble whacking configuration files (see my other ticket: [https://trac.macports.org/ticket/27354]).
The nginx.conf file shouldn't be part of the files managed by the installation, or if it is, it needs to be checked against either a modification time or a hash value of the package one so that these problems don't happen.
