我正在使用这个的init.d脚本：http://wiki.nginx.org/RedHatNginxInitScript但这个脚本很糟糕我的CentOS 5.5 nginx 1.0.6(由乘客安装).
它有两个原因：

>当我运行服务nginx启动时,它启动nginx但不要自行退出.
>它运行在一些不同的运行时路径($PATH)中,以便rails无法找到位于/usr/local/bin内的可执行文件(如node.js)

是否有任何init.d脚本适用于你们(在CentOS或其他基于Redhat的发行版上)没有这些问题？

解决方法:

这里的一个：http://articles.slicehost.com/2009/2/2/centos-adding-an-nginx-init-script过去对我有用.

例如,您需要将路径更改为“/ etc / nginx”而不是“/usr/local/nginx”.

实际上两者都相似,只是你的旧版本有另外一个“MakeDirs”功能.不知道为什么这可能是需要的.

我现在的一个是：
