If you use paths in your module you are expected to handle them much like the nginx itself, depending on context: - either relative to prefix, like load_module does; - or relative to conf prefix, like include does; - or relative to document root, like serving static files. First two variants are usually handled at configuration parsing time using the ngx_conf_full_name() function. Last one is usually done with the ngx_http_map_uri_to_path() function. -- Maxim Dounin http://nginx.org/ ___ nginx mailing list nginx@nginx.org http://mailman.nginx.org/mailman/listinfo/nginx
Re: How to config the path for the dynamic module of nginx to access?
Thanks for your reply. I've already have load_module /usr/local/etc/nginx/ngx_http_my_module.so; in nginx.conf But that "ngx_http_my_module.so" will write out some files, I'd like to config the path for those generated files. Currently the path seems to be the working folder I start nginx service.

Paths to modules as specified in the load_module directive are resolved from --prefix as set during ./configure, much like many other paths in nginx. -- Maxim Dounin http://nginx.org/ ___ nginx mailing list nginx@nginx.org http://mailman.nginx.org/mailman/listinfo/nginx
