We run nginx as our tools web server.

Installation

Run sudo apt-get install nginx.

Configuration

Just installing and running nginx will display a message to visitors to the url that the site must still be configured.

To actually do that:

  • We have a bunch of site files in tools:/etc/nginx/sites-available (plus symlinks in sites-enabled). Copy those over to the corresponding directories.
  • We're currently using the same SSL certs as we use on web. Info here.

Watch this space, work in progress.
