Bug 404239 – www-servers/nginx init script should support multiple instances

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description BigBug 2012-02-17 11:39:27 UTC]

Sometimes is needed to start more than one nginx server instance, current init script does not allow this.

Reproducible: Always




The only thing to change is 2 lines in the nginx.initd file

diff file to change nginx.initd script

only 2-line patch which will allow creation of /etc/conf.d/nginx or /etc/conf.d/nginx.xxx (with belonging symlink in init.d) what will allow to start multiple instances of nginx server without loosing any current functionality.
