1. 下载 官网地址:http://nginx.org/ 
下载压缩包 http://nginx.org/download/nginx-1.8.0.tar.gz 
2. 加载linux光盘，配置仓库

[root@chen ~]# ls -l /dev|grep cdrom
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root           3 1月   3 20:55 cdrom -> sr0
crw-rw----. 1 root cdrom    21,   0 1月   3 20:55 sg0
brw-rw----. 1 root cdrom    11,   0 1月   3 20:55 sr0
[root@chen ~]# mount /dev/cdrom /mnt
mount: block device /dev/sr0 is write-protected, mounting read-only
[root@chen ~]# cat /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Media.repo 
[c6-media]
name=CentOS-$releasever - Media
baseurl=file:///mnt/
gpgcheck=1
enabled=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-6

3. 安装编译工具gcc等

[root@chen ~]# yum --disablerepo=\* --enablerepo=c6-media -y install gcc gcc-c++ autoconf automake
已加载插件：fastestmirror, security
设置安装进程
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
c6-media                                                           | 4.0 kB     00:00 ... 
包 gcc-4.4.7-11.el6.i686 已安装并且是最新版本
解决依赖关系

---> Package gcc-c++.i686 0:4.4.7-11.el6 will be 安装
--> 处理依赖关系 libstdc++-devel = 4.4.7-11.el6，它被软件包 gcc-c++-4.4.7-11.el6.i686 需要
--> 执行事务检查
---> Package libstdc++-devel.i686 0:4.4.7-11.el6 will be 安装
--> 完成依赖关系计算
... ... ... ...
已安装:
  autoconf.noarch 0:2.63-5.1.el6              automake.noarch 0:1.11.1-4.el6             
  gcc-c++.i686 0:4.4.7-11.el6                
作为依赖被安装:
  libstdc++-devel.i686 0:4.4.7-11.el6                                                     
完毕！

4. 安装zlib等支持库

[root@chen ~]# yum --disablerepo=\* --enablerepo=c6-media -y install zlib zlib-devel openssl openss-devel pcre-devel
已加载插件：fastestmirror, security
设置安装进程
... ... ... ...
已安装:
  pcre-devel.i686 0:7.8-6.el6                                                             
完毕！

5. 上传压缩包到服务器，解压

[root@chen ~]# ls
anaconda-ks.cfg  install.log  install.log.syslog  nginx-1.8.0.tar.gz
[root@chen ~]# tar -zxvf  nginx-1.8.0.tar.gz 
nginx-1.8.0/
nginx-1.8.0/auto/
nginx-1.8.0/conf/

... ... ... ...

Configuration summary

7. 编译内核

[root@chen nginx-1.8.0]# make && make install
make -f objs/Makefile
make[1]: Entering directory `/root/nginx-1.8.0'
cc -c -pipe  -O -W -Wall -Wpointer-arith -Wno-unused-parameter -Werror -g  -I src/core -I src/event -I src/event/modules -I src/os/unix -I objs \
		-o objs/src/core/nginx.o \
		src/core/nginx.c
... ... ... ...
make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/nginx-1.8.0'

8. 编写脚本nginx放入/etc/init.d/目录下：

#!/bin/sh
#

#

9. 测试

[root@chen ~]# chkconfig --add nginx
[root@chen ~]# chkconfig --list nginx
nginx          	0:关闭	1:关闭	2:启用	3:启用	4:启用	5:启用	6:关闭
[root@chen ~]# service nginx start
[root@chen ~]# service nginx stop
停止 nginx：                                               [确定]
