JINX LNMP high performance platform

JINX - a black magic to have your web server rock,
no obese apaches inside.

includes:
1) nginx (stable release) by Igor Sysoev
2) php 5.3 with FPM-CGI (with suhosin patch and extension, 3 opcode caches to choose from: apc, eaccelerator and xcache)
3) compat libraries, to eliminate the need of installing dependencies for php
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Hardware requirements: an x86 processor with SSE2 ,
an older CPU is not supported by compiling runtime,
however you can compile yourself and run same software
on any computer with >32 Mb RAM

Software requirements: Linux x86 with kernel 2.6.8 and greater,
2.6.18+ recommended. Glibc 2.7+ ( 2.11.2 was used at compile time)
System libpam.so.0 recommended over those which is included in jinx-libs,
use it as stub only (i.e. on slackware, where is no native libpam)

Installation:

unpack n-jinx, base and libs into /usr/local:

cd /usr/local
tar -xvf /path/to/n-jinx-$VERSION.tgz
tar -xvf /path/to/jinx-sbase_$DATE.tgz
tar -xvf /path/to/jinx-libs_$DATE.tgz

if upgrading - unpack somewhere else and replace bin/ lib/ and include/ directories

configuration:
look in /usr/local/jinx/etc

1) nginx.conf - this is a config for web server
documentation at Nginx Wiki
pay attention to:

user USER GROUP;
- set to uid and gid you want static webserver to use

If you have any nasty problem with eventfd - add
use poll;
to events { } section, another possible values - epoll select

this minimal config will do: (document root is in /var/www/localhost/htdocs)
( please note - this is a bad example, you should use try_files with fastcgi_pass,
to make sure that script does really exists, otherwise its a security risk , see more about it )

user httpd httpd; # uid gid
worker_processes 1; # use as many as many cpu cores you have
worker_priority 1; # process prio, from -20 (highest) to 20 (lowest)
working_directory /usr/local/jinx/html; # error pages html are here
events { worker_connections 1000 ; use epoll; } # max connections, eventfd
http {
include mime.types;
default_type application/octet-stream;
log_format '$remote_addr - $remote_user [$time_local] '
'"$request" $status $bytes_sent '
'"$http_referer" "$http_user_agent"';
access_log logs/access.log;
sendfile on;
tcp_nopush on;
tcp_nodelay on;
server {
listen 80;
#server_name localhost;
charset utf-8;
location ~ /\.ht { deny all; } # safeguard apache-only files
# execute PHP
location ~ \.php$ {
root /var/www/localhost/htdocs;
fastcgi_pass unix:/tmp/fastcgi.socket; # must match path in php-fpm.ini
fastcgi_index index.php;
fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /var/www/localhost/htdocs$fastcgi_script_name;
include fastcgi_params;}
# root
location / { root /var/www/localhost/htdocs; index index.php index.html; }
} # server
} # http

2) Configure PHP, look inside /usr/local/jinx/etc/fpm
Revise php.ini , nothing special to pay attention here comparing to apache-case
edit php-fpm.conf , syntax is pretty self explaining

or this one example will do:

[global]
pid = run/php-fpm.pid
error_log = log/php-fpm.log
;log_level = notice
;emergency_restart_threshold = 0
;emergency_restart_interval = 0
;process_control_timeout = 0
daemonize = yes
[www-data]
; listen on tcp
;listen = 127.0.0.1:9119
;listen.allowed_clients = 127.0.0.1
; or use unix socket
listen = /tmp/fastcgi.socket
; socket owner (nginx user!)
listen.owner = httpd
listen.group = httpd
listen.mode = 0600
; this is uid and gid that PHP scripts runs from
user = www-data
group = www-data
; this is minimal config
pm = dynamic
pm.max_children = 2
pm.start_servers = 1
pm.min_spare_servers = 1
pm.max_spare_servers = 1
pm.max_requests = 32
;chroot =
chdir = /var/empty

Thats all, run nginx and php-fpm as root (binaries are in /usr/local/nginx/bin )
if your config is correct - it will work, else look in logs
To autostart use your init scripts ( may be /etc/rc.local will do )

If you'll like to use lighttpd instead of nginx, you can get lity package as n-jinx replacement.
And if you need MySQL(equiv) - you can use MariaDB package.
