Nginx startup prompt [emerg] no "events" section in configuration

Question

In the X-WAF deployment, you need to create a new nginx configuration file. However, when testing the nginx configuration, an error is found and nginx cannot be started.

I refer to http://blog.51cto.com/14071176/2318054，I did it step by step according to the configuration in the article, but I had a problem.

root@VM-0-6-ubuntu:~# /usr/local/openresty/nginx/sbin/nginx -t nginx: the configuration file /usr/local/openresty/nginx/conf/nginx.conf syntax is ok nginx: [emerg] no "events" section in configuration nginx: configuration file /usr/local/openresty/nginx/conf/nginx.conf test failed  root@VM-0-6-ubuntu:~# /usr/local/openresty/nginx/sbin/nginx nginx: [emerg] no "events" section in configuration 

Under normal circumstances, executing /usr/local/openresty/nginx/sbin/nginx -t will have two successes, but mine is a success and a failure.

Answer 1

Just add events { } above the http { line:

events {} http {     server {         # Your code here     } } 

Answer 2

Put above http{}

events {     worker_connections 1024; } 

Nginx worker_connections : sets the maximum number of simultaneous connections that can be opened by a worker process.
