Doest this work with nginx version: nginx/1.22.1? Not able to run ./confugure commnd

[alokkumar0009]

Nginx is already running as a proxy server for me and as per new requirement I am trying to use this module. But as per instruction I am not able to run ./configue command it says bash: ./configure: No such file or directory.

Not sure If I can use the module with my nginx version, which is already instaled and serving us since 3 years?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

You need a copy of the nginx sources, simply having the installed binary isn't going to cut it. If you don't know how the version you have was originally built be sure to test carefully to make sure you don't lose sone other customizations with a new build. Running nginx -V (that's with a capital vee) should get you started with configure options that may have been used before.

Thank for response

nginx -V gives me below:

[root@ip-10-XX-XX-XX ec2-user]# nginx -V
nginx version: nginx/1.22.1
built by gcc 7.3.1 20180712 (Red Hat 7.3.1-17) (GCC)

What do you mean by copy of the nginx sources? thanks for reply.

fwiw and anyone who also fails on this part. this is my workflow for installing it with Debian but you would only need to replace the apt calls with the apropiate way for redhat/smth i guess like this yum install yum-utils ; yumdownloader --source nginx; yum; yum-builddep nginx + extracting maybe 🤷🏼

mkdir -p ~/src/nginx/spnego/
cd $_
git clone https://github.com/stnoonan/spnego-http-auth-nginx-module.git
git -C spnego-http-auth-nginx-module checkout v1.1.2
apt-get build-dep -y nginx
apt-get source nginx
cd nginx-*/
