Nginx installation package vs manual source build with mod_security
by newbie14 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#56CPW)
Hi All,
I have done some googles here example
https://docs.nginx.com/nginx/admin-g...ource/#sources. This site talks on both how to install via package manager or manually build it from source. I know from source its tedious and difficult to keep up and manage and also to the upgrade. Secondly on via manual build we can control which module to build or remove. Thirdly also to further improve security only it works via manual build too. So looking at all the google link looks like to install nginx is it best to do via manual source build or should I remain via package manager?
