Trying to install nginx but getting errors:
I have attempted installing with dependencies, but just not understanding this error. I'm being a total noob right now.
Apache wasn't installed at some point was it? That could be hogging port 80.
Not sure about apache. UCRM is installed at port 80.
@travisdh1 said in What Are You Doing Right Now:
@nerdydad What Distribution and version? Also, any custom repos? That just should not happen on a standard install of anything, uck.
Debian 9 with Ubiquiti's UCRM (ports 80 & 81) and UNMS (8080 & 8443) both installed by their install scripts.
Well... 2 services can't use the same port, and nginx will want to use port 80 by default. Look for the config file in /etc/nginx and comment out the port 80, and un-comment the port 443. You might have to do some more than just that......
Which begs the question, why do you want to run this on the same server? Having another server running an nginx proxy would be trivial resource wise.
Looking at purchasing a dedicated instance from Vultr and was considering combining both services to one server. Then Jared and Aaron mentioned Nginx and now I'm considering rebuilding this server again, but with nginx first, then the 2 services.
That won't really help. In both cases, you have to change the ports of the other services.
That's fine about ports as long as it can forward from a sub-domain. But this leads me to 2 questions:
- How will this affect communications with my equipment when deployed and into production?
- What features does this add to the server? Better security?
Definitely adds a layer of complexity to the mix.
But eliminate a complete server.
Sorry, I'm not following. Is nginx supposed to be its own server or separate the 2 services?
Nginx is just a web server. You generally use it as a proxy in front of other services so that you have caching and control.
Any other recommendations for preparing (hardening) the server to face the public?
Keep it turned off and unplugged? The public is rough!

I wonder if any of those could have been combined into one VM to save money?

What could you possibly need 17 separate new servers for suddenly? A new big project? That's a lot of processing power requirement all at once.

Maybe yes, maybe no. What if it was 17 new customers? Perhaps they have been sitting in a pile and scott just now got around to making them.

Okay, well that makes more sense.
But 17 from the get-go? Are you unable to scale out or something?

I mean starting out with like 8 servers for the first bunch of customers. Then when demand dictates, scale out (add more).

I provisioned 16 last week. We buy clusters and do CFD solves over them.

What happened?
-
@scottalanmiller Server supposed to be live but Doctors could not see Images and provide reports for MRIs... so I needed to revert back to previous server and wait until "Development" and "Support" research the issue since they have not been able to see this issue "before". I troubleshot most of the issues myself... and I wasted a whole day on the phone with support to end with the same way it started.
-
@scottalanmiller All this because their application was not working right, and I needed to find this out instead of them prior to support/production to see it...it has been a long time since I have gotten pretty upset with a support company.
