<section name="Installation instructions" id="instructions">

<para>
Before you install nginx for the first time on a new machine, you need to
set up the nginx packages repository.
Afterward, you can install and update nginx from the repository.
</para>

<section name="RHEL and derivatives" id="RHEL">

<para>
This section applies to Red Hat Enterprise Linux and its derivatives such as
CentOS, Oracle Linux, Rocky Linux, AlmaLinux.
</para>

<para>
Install the prerequisites:
<programlisting>
sudo yum install yum-utils
</programlisting>

To set up the yum repository, create the file named
<path>/etc/yum.repos.d/nginx.repo</path>
with the following contents:

<programlisting>
[nginx-stable]
name=nginx stable repo
baseurl=https://nginx.org/packages/centos/$releasever/$basearch/

gpgcheck=1
enabled=0
gpgkey=https://nginx.org/keys/nginx_signing.key
module_hotfixes=true
</programlisting>

By default, the repository for stable nginx packages is used.
If you would like to use mainline nginx packages,
run the following command:
<programlisting>
sudo yum-config-manager --enable nginx-mainline
</programlisting>

To install nginx, run the following command:
<programlisting>
sudo yum install nginx
</programlisting>

When prompted to accept the GPG key, verify that the fingerprint matches
<command>573B FD6B 3D8F BC64 1079 A6AB ABF5 BD82 7BD9 BF62</command>,
and if so, accept it.

Main nginx package is built with all modules that do not require additional

Since version 1.9.11, nginx supports

packages:
<programlisting>
nginx-module-geoip
nginx-module-image-filter
nginx-module-njs
nginx-module-perl
nginx-module-xslt
</programlisting>
Additionally, since version 1.25.3, the following module is shipped as a
separate package:
<programlisting>
nginx-module-otel

<section name="Signatures" id="signatures">

<para>
Since our <link doc="../en/pgp_keys.xml">PGP keys</link>
and packages are located on the same server,
they are equally trusted.
It is highly advised to additionally verify
the authenticity of the downloaded PGP key.
PGP has the “Web of Trust” concept,
when a key is signed by someone else’s key,
that in turn is signed by another key and so on.
It often makes possible to build a chain from an arbitrary key
to someone’s key who you know and trust personally,
thus verify the authenticity of the first key in a chain.
This concept is described in details in
<link url="https://www.gnupg.org/howtos/en/GPGMiniHowto-1.html">
GPG Mini Howto</link>.
Our keys have enough signatures,
and their authenticity is relatively easy to check.
