Error processing package nginx

Обычно для создания и редактирования пользователей нужно иметь довольно много прав.

Часто это делается под root.

Начиная с Debian 10 нас ждёт сюрприз от разработчиков. Если Вы стали root
по-старинке, выполнив su без агрументов Ваша системная переменная

PATH

скорее всего не содержит многих нужных директорий.

Всё потому, что теперь команда su идёт из другого package — util-linux вместо shadow
и не обновляет PATH по умолчанию.

Означает, что пользователя user нужно добавить в группу sudo

Выполните

Скорее всего эта ошибка появилась у вас в Debian 10 после выполнения su (

2. Re: Unable to install nginx Ubuntu 16.04
   

   The error message tells you what the problem is:

   Code:

   dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of nginx:
    nginx depends on nginx-core (>= 1.10.0-0ubuntu0.16.04.2) | nginx-full (>= 1.10.0-0ubuntu0.16.04.2) | nginx-light (>= 1.10.0-0ubuntu0.16.04.2) | nginx-extras (>= 1.10.0-0ubuntu0.16.04.2); however:
     Package nginx-core is not configured yet.
     Package nginx-full is not installed.
     Package nginx-light is not installed.
     Package nginx-extras is not installed.
    nginx depends on nginx-core (<< 1.10.0-0ubuntu0.16.04.2.1~) | nginx-full (<< 1.10.0-0ubuntu0.16.04.2.1~) | nginx-light (<< 1.10.0-0ubuntu0.16.04.2.1~) | nginx-extras (<< 1.10.0-0ubuntu0.16.04.2.1~); however:
     Package nginx-core is not configured yet.
     Package nginx-full is not installed.
     Package nginx-light is not installed.
     Package nginx-extras is not installed.

   you need to also install the following packages:

   • nginx-full
   • nginx-light
   • nginx-extras

3. Re: Unable to install nginx Ubuntu 16.04
   

   Thank you .I had tried installing the packages listed by you but it gave error. Even purging the packages also gave error. I used

   Code:

   sudo apt-get install package name
   
   sudo apt-get purge package name
   and also apt-get install -f

   The packages on which I ran the install and purge commands are

   • nginx-full
   • nginx-light
   • nginx-extras
   • nginx

4. Re: Unable to install nginx Ubuntu 16.04
   

   I’d suggest using:to see if there are any left over files after running:

   Code:

   sudo apt purge <package name>

   Note: you no longer need to use apt-get in version 16.04+, a simple apt works the same way, even giving you a progress bar at the bottom of the screen.

5. Re: Unable to install nginx Ubuntu 16.04
   

   THank you nginx is successfully installed. Even after installation I cannnot locate nginx. That is ok

   Code:

   ps -e |grep ngi 8387 ?        00:00:00 nginx
    8388 ?        00:00:00 nginx
   root@ubuntu-i386:/home/uma# locate nginx
   root@ubuntu-i386:/home/uma#

   I am migrating from Apache to nginx hence was following this tutorial https://www.digitalocean.com/communi…-an-ubuntu-vps

   I wasnt able to find any specific tutorial for Ubuntu 16 too migrate from apache to nginx.

7. Re: Unable to install nginx Ubuntu 16.04
   

   I tried installing nginx on a server with the lamp stack already installed, and ran into the same problem as you.

   I created a new server install in a vm, without installing anything extra, I installed nginx, with zero problems and it works as it should

   Thank you for your reply. There must be a way to install nginx along with Apache. I have seen articles using apache and nginx together. I wanted to try this too.

If you plan on trying the tutorial you linked to, follow it from the start, and don’t skip any steps. I followed it on a vm, and after a bit of troubleshooting I got it to work. The big problem was extra directives in /etc/nginx/sites-available/default, this is a corrected version:

   Code:

   ##
   # You should look at the following URL's in order to grasp a solid understanding
   # of Nginx configuration files in order to fully unleash the power of Nginx.
   # http://wiki.nginx.org/Pitfalls
   # http://wiki.nginx.org/QuickStart
   # http://wiki.nginx.org/Configuration
   #
   # Generally, you will want to move this file somewhere, and start with a clean
   # file but keep this around for reference. Or just disable in sites-enabled.
   #
   # Please see /usr/share/doc/nginx-doc/examples/ for more detailed examples.
   ##
   
   # Default server configuration
   #
   server {
   	listen 80 default_server;
   	listen [::]:80 default_server;
   
   	root /var/www/html;
   
   	#add index.php to the list if you are using php
   	index indes.html indes.htm index.nginx-debian.html index.php;
   
   
   	location / {
   		proxy_pass http://localhost:8000;
   		include /etc/nginx/proxy_params;
   	}
   }
   
   	# SSL configuration
   	#
   	# listen 443 ssl default_server;
   	# listen [::]:443 ssl default_server;
   	#
   	# Note: You should disable gzip for SSL traffic.
   	# See: https://bugs.debian.org/773332
   	#
   	# Read up on ssl_ciphers to ensure a secure configuration.
   	# See: https://bugs.debian.org/765782
   	#
   	# Self signed certs generated by the ssl-cert package
   	# Don't use them in a production server!
   	#
   	# include snippets/snakeoil.conf;
   
   	#server_name _;
   
   	#location / {
   		# First attempt to serve request as file, then
   		# as directory, then fall back to displaying a 404.
   		#try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
   	#}
   
   	# pass the PHP scripts to FastCGI server listening on 127.0.0.1:9000
   	#
   	#location ~ .php$ {
   	#	include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
   	#
   	#	# With php7.0-cgi alone:
   	#	fastcgi_pass 127.0.0.1:9000;
   	#	# With php7.0-fpm:
   	#	fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock;
   	#}
   
   	# deny access to .htaccess files, if Apache's document root
   	# concurs with nginx's one
   	#
   	#location ~ /.ht {
   	#	deny all;
   	#}
   #}
   
   
   # Virtual Host configuration for example.com
   #
   # You can move that to a different file under sites-available/ and symlink that
   # to sites-enabled/ to enable it.
   #
   #server {
   #	listen 80;
   #	listen [::]:80;
   #
   #	server_name example.com;
