How to restart nginx?
Solution 1:
The nginx package supplies a /etc/init.d/nginx script that provides the usual start|stop|restart|reload ... functionality.
/etc/init.d/nginx restart
will restart nginx
as will
service nginx restart
Edit
Here is a link to a script you can use as /etc/init.d/nginx.
Solution 2:
http://wiki.nginx.org/CommandLine
inside the links there are some command for start and stop nginx server
for starting nginx:
/usr/bin/nginx
for stoping nginx:
/usr/bin/nginx -s stop
/usr/bin
depends on where you install your nginx
Solution 3:
For some reason, on the embedded system I am working on it is:
systemctl restart nginx
