Install NGINX with PageSpeed using *.deb for Ubuntu LTS (AMD64)

Hello there, I’ve made an easily installable *.deb NGINX package with PageSpeed. The package is made for Ubuntu LTS on AMD64 machine.

Ubuntu 14.04 LTS – nginx 1.8.0 with PageSpeed

1. nginx-full_1.8.0-1+trusty1-mypapitubuntu4_amd64.deb Full package
2. nginx-extras_1.8.0-1+trusty1-mypapitubuntu4_amd64.deb Extra package

Ubuntu 14.04 LTS – nginx 1.8.0 with PageSpeed: Other Package

1. nginx-common_1.8.0-1+trusty1-mypapitubuntu4_all.deb
2. nginx_1.8.0-1+trusty1-mypapitubuntu4_all.deb
3. nginx-doc_1.8.0-1+trusty1-mypapitubuntu4_all.deb

Installing nginx-extras or nginx-full is as easy as running this command

sudo dpkg -i nginx-common_1.8.0-1+trusty1-mypapitubuntu4_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i nginx-full_1.8.0-1+trusty1-mypapitubuntu4_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i nginx_1.8.0-1+trusty1-mypapitubuntu4_all.deb

Attention : Once installed, the PageSpeed configuration file can be found in “/etc/nginx/conf.d/pagespeed.conf”

Verify Installation
To verify whether nginx with pagespeed has been installed, type

nginx -V

Verify Installation with a preinstalled nginx
If you’ve another version of nginx installed on your system, take note that the nginx-pagespeed from *.deb is installed in “/usr/local/bin”

/usr/local/bin/nginx -V

It will output something like this:
