SOLVED THE PROBLEM COMPILING NGINX FROM SOURCE
----------------------------------------------

hi, i'm not new to slackware i used it when it was 13.37, now i installed the slackware-current iso because i tried alpine linux and i didn't liked it, so i'm going back here.

this is the problem:
I installed from zero with ALL the packages and i used the nginx build for Slackware 15 from slackbuilds

my settings:
uname -a:

Code:

Linux xois.cl 6.6.6 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Mon Dec 11 13:44:22 CST 2023 x86_64 Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-10100F CPU @ 3.60GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux

iptables -L:

Code:

Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination         
ACCEPT     tcp  --  anywhere             anywhere             tcp dpt:http

nginx.conf:

Code:

user root;
worker_processes auto;
worker_rlimit_nofile 8192;
daemon off;

events {
  worker_connections 8000;

  multi_accept on;
  use epoll;
}

error_log  /var/log/nginx/error.log warn;

pid        /var/run/nginx.pid;

http {
  server_tokens off;
  include       /etc/nginx/mime.types;
  default_type  application/octet-stream;
  charset_types text/xml text/plain text/vnd.wap.wml application/x-javascript application/rss+xml text/css application/javascript application/json;
  log_format  main  '$remote_addr - $remote_user [$time_local] "$request" '
                    '$status $body_bytes_sent "$http_referer" '
                    '"$http_user_agent" "$http_x_forwarded_for"';

  keepalive_timeout 20;

  tcp_nodelay     off;
  gzip on;

  gzip_min_length    256;
  gzip_proxied       any;
  gzip_vary          on;

    image/svg+xml
    image/x-icon
    text/css
    text/plain
    text/x-component;

  include conf.d/*;
}

(tried root user since is the only one in my system)

curl localhost:

Code:

curl: (7) Failed to connect to localhost port 80 after 0 ms: Couldn't connect to server

chrome answer:

Code:

refused to connect.

i don't now what else could be important, thanks ( i love Slackware

)
i'll try creating a user and testing again but i don't think is the problem...

It misses the server{} part:

Code:

server {
    listen 80 default_server;
...
...
}

in your nginx.conf
