|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Install Nginx + PHP-FPM on Ubuntu 24.04 server.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is not a guide and not a toy.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is a production-grade installer — secure, structured, and ready for multiple applications.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Why this installer exists
|
|
|
|
|
|
Default Nginx configs become unmanageable quickly. This setup keeps things structured and predictable.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## What this installer does
|
|
|
|
|
|
✔ Creates snippet directory for modular config
|
|
|
|
|
|
✔ Optional security and bot-blocking modules
|
|
|
|
|
|
✔ Cloudflare Real-IP support
|
|
|
|
|
|
✔ Requests to bare server IP return **444**
|
|
|
|
|
|
✔ Suitable for WordPress, Gitea, Zabbix, Wiki and more
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## What this installer does *NOT* do
|
|
|
|
|
|
It won’t stop you from running the script without reading the documentation like there’s no tomorrow.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Skip the README, and whatever happens next is your headache, not a bug report.

## nginx-snippets vs nginx-snippets-local
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`nginx-snippets` should be kept clean so you can always pull changes without conflicts.
|
|
|
|
|
|
`nginx-snippets-local` is a directory where you can store your own snippets for the local machine.
