I’m thinking of following these instructions to upgrade NGINX to the latest.
Could you please have a quick scan through and check that I’m not going to “F” everything up!
Many Thanks - Nigel.
Debian
Install the prerequisites:
sudo apt install curl gnupg2 ca-certificates lsb-release debian-archive-keyring
Import an official nginx signing key so apt could verify the packages authenticity. Fetch the key:
curl https://nginx.org/keys/nginx_signing.key | gpg --dearmor
| sudo tee /usr/share/keyrings/nginx-archive-keyring.gpg >/dev/null
Verify that the downloaded file contains the proper key:
gpg --dry-run --quiet --no-keyring --import --import-options
import-show /usr/share/keyrings/nginx-archive-keyring.gpg
The output should contain the full fingerprint 573BFD6B3D8FBC641079A6ABABF5BD827BD9BF62 as follows:
pub rsa2048 2011-08-19 [SC] [expires: 2027-05-24]
573BFD6B3D8FBC641079A6ABABF5BD827BD9BF62
uid nginx signing key signing-key@nginx.com
Note that the output can contain other keys used to sign the packages.
To set up the apt repository for stable nginx packages, run the following command:
echo “deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/nginx-archive-keyring.gpg]
Index of /packages/debian/ lsb_release -cs nginx”
| sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nginx.list
If you would like to use mainline nginx packages, run the following command instead:
echo “deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/nginx-archive-keyring.gpg]
Index of /packages/mainline/debian/ lsb_release -cs nginx”
| sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/nginx.list
Set up repository pinning to prefer our packages over distribution-provided ones:
echo -e “Package: *\nPin: origin nginx.org\nPin: release o=nginx\nPin-Priority: 900\n”
| sudo tee /etc/apt/preferences.d/99nginx
To install nginx, run the following commands:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install nginx
