Trying to install nginx but getting errors:
I have attempted installing with dependencies, but just not understanding this error. I'm being a total noob right now.
Apache wasn't installed at some point was it? That could be hogging port 80.
Not sure about apache. UCRM is installed at port 80.
@travisdh1 said in What Are You Doing Right Now:
@nerdydad What Distribution and version? Also, any custom repos? That just should not happen on a standard install of anything, uck.
Debian 9 with Ubiquiti's UCRM (ports 80 & 81) and UNMS (8080 & 8443) both installed by their install scripts.
Well... 2 services can't use the same port, and nginx will want to use port 80 by default. Look for the config file in /etc/nginx and comment out the port 80, and un-comment the port 443. You might have to do some more than just that......
Which begs the question, why do you want to run this on the same server? Having another server running an nginx proxy would be trivial resource wise.
Looking at purchasing a dedicated instance from Vultr and was considering combining both services to one server. Then Jared and Aaron mentioned Nginx and now I'm considering rebuilding this server again, but with nginx first, then the 2 services.
That won't really help. In both cases, you have to change the ports of the other services.
That's fine about ports as long as it can forward from a sub-domain. But this leads me to 2 questions:
- How will this affect communications with my equipment when deployed and into production?
- What features does this add to the server? Better security?
Definitely adds a layer of complexity to the mix.

Sorry, I'm not following. Is nginx supposed to be its own server or separate the 2 services?

Nginx is just a web server. You generally use it as a proxy in front of other services so that you have caching and control.

Make sure there's a network firewall before the server, only allowing the ports through that you are using on the server.
Make sure SELinux is on, and linux firewall is configured well.

yeah, was afraid of that.. and this new instance would be in a different DC than my current one.. no telling how fast 80 GB data would move.. though I'm beting pretty good.
