I've installed my nginx via the ppa package 

add-apt-repository ppa:nginx
apt-get install nginx

which works just fine. But now I need to add support for websockets for my socket.io app. I found some tutorials, but generally the process is to download the source and recompile nginx with the tcp_proxy module.

Is there any way I can do this with the package manager, so that I don't have to compile it manualy? I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 if that's of any relevance.

  • There is no ready package for that. You should start with `apt-get source nginx`, and recompile it with this module. And don't forget to use something like `sudo checkinstall --pkgname nginx --pkgversion 1.2-tcl --install` instead of `make install`. – Dmitry Verkhoturov May 06 '12 at 13:27
  • And finally I [found it](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10395807/nginx-close-upstream-connection-after-request). Please check this question - it's about HTTP 1.1 in nginx since 1.1.4. – Dmitry Verkhoturov May 06 '12 at 13:40
