Ubuntu 18.04环境下编译Nginx动态模块，./configure文件在哪里？

Hey there! Let's sort out why you can't find the ./configure file and how to get it sorted:

为什么找不到？ #

If you installed Nginx via Ubuntu's default apt package manager, you only got pre-compiled binary files—not the source code that includes the ./configure script. That's the most common reason for this issue.

步骤1：确认当前Nginx版本 #

First, check exactly which version of Nginx you're running (you need source code that matches this version perfectly):

nginx -v

You'll get output like nginx version: nginx/1.14.0 (this is the default version for Ubuntu 18.04).

步骤2：安装编译依赖 #

Before working with the source code, install the tools and libraries required for compiling Nginx modules:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install build-essential libpcre3 libpcre3-dev zlib1g zlib1g-dev openssl libssl-dev

步骤3：下载对应版本的Nginx源码 #

Grab the source tarball that matches your Nginx version from the official Nginx download page. For example, if you're on version 1.14.0, you'll want the nginx-1.14.0.tar.gz file.

步骤4：解压并找到./configure #

Unpack the downloaded tarball and enter the source directory—you'll find the ./configure script here:

tar -xzf nginx-1.14.0.tar.gz
cd nginx-1.14.0

Run ls and you'll see the configure file right in this directory.

关键提示：编译动态模块的重要细节 #

When compiling your dynamic module, you need to use the same configure arguments that your installed Nginx was built with. To get those arguments, run:

nginx -V

Look for the configure arguments: line in the output. When you run ./configure for your module, append --add-dynamic-module=/path/to/your/module/source to that existing list of arguments.

如果你原本是源码安装的Nginx？ #

If you originally installed Nginx from source code, the ./configure file is in the source directory you used during that installation. If you can't locate it now, you might have deleted the directory—just re-download the matching source code following the steps above.
