Best nginx configuration for Joomla

User Rating:  / 0

Nginx-logo

nginx (pronounced “engine-x”) is an open source Web server and a reverse proxy server for HTTP, SMTP, POP3 and IMAP protocols, with a strong focus on high concurrency, performance and low memory usage. It is licensed under a BSD-like license and it runs on Unix, Linux, BSD variants, Mac OS X, Solaris, AIX and Microsoft Windows [WikiPedia]

These are my reusable settings for any Joomla hosting, these are the most secure, and fastest settings to the best of my knowledge.

Configuration files are provided using Gist  and are CONSTANTLY updated for added security and speed. Gist is a simple way to share snippets and pastes with others. All gists are git repositories, so they are automatically versioned, forkable and usable as a git repository. I recommend you to starred them to stay up to date.

User Rating:  / 0

Andrea Tarr published this great blog post outlining all the new features in 2.5. The three new features that will be promoted heavily in Joomla 2.5's marketing are multi-database support, the new search engine and even easier updates.

Joomla 2.5, due out in January 2012, will have a host of new features including new search functionality, multi-database support, and update notification. The following article describes these features. Many people in the community have contributed to making these features possible, some of whom are listed here. Moving from 1.7 to 2.5 can be done with the one-click upgrade within Joomla and most extensions that run on 1.7 should also run on 2.5.

Updating From Ubuntu 10.04 LTS to Ubuntu 11.10

User Rating:  / 0

Make sure that your data are safe and that your backups are working and in a safe place: obviously not on the server you are currently upgrading!

While being logged in as root, you’ll have to edit the file /etc/update-manager/release-upgrades and set the value prompt to normal.

PROTESTS AGAINST SOPA

User Rating:  / 0
 

Millions of Americans oppose SOPA and PIPA because these bills would censor the Internet and slow economic growth in the U.S.

Help protect the web. Sign the petition against SOPA & PIPA: http://t.co/zlj2BFCU

And please share the petition

I am also joining the ranks of US and international internet and technology organizations like Free Software Foundation (FSF), Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE), Mozilla, Google, Wikipedia, Open Source Initiative, WordPress, and Human Rights organizations like Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, in expressing our concern with these US Congress and Senate bills:

A US Congressional vote is slated on these bills for this month [now delayed until February], and many feel that it will inevitably become a mandate for formalized Internet censorship, with an impact that goes far beyond the borders of any single country.

PIPA introduces a deeply concerning degree of legal uncertainty into the internet economy, particularly for users and businesses internationally. And while SOPA is also a US bill, it has several provisions that would have serious implications for international civil and human rights which raise concerns about how the United States is approaching global Internet governance.

You can respects legitimate Intellectual Property rights of others, but still be concerned about the consequences of such far reaching laws, both for citizens of the US, and the global community!
