The Nginx UI follows the Debian web server configuration file standard. Created site configuration files will be placed in the sites-available folder that under the Nginx configuration folder (auto-detected). The configuration files for an enabled site will create a soft link to the sites-enabled folder. You may need to adjust the way the configuration files are organised.
For non-Debian (and Ubuntu) systems, you may need to change the contents of the nginx.conf configuration file to the Debian style as shown below.
http {
# ...
include /etc/nginx/conf.d/*.conf;
include /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/*;
}For more information: debian/conf/nginx.conf
Nginx UI is available on the following platforms:
- macOS 11 Big Sur and later (amd64 / arm64)
- Windows 10 and later (amd64 / arm64)
- Linux 2.6.23 and later (x86 / amd64 / arm64 / armv5 / armv6 / armv7 / mips32 / mips64 / riscv64 / loongarch64)
- Including but not limited to Debian 7 / 8, Ubuntu 12.04 / 14.04 and later, CentOS 6 / 7, Arch Linux

- Openwrt
You can visit latest release to download the latest distribution, or just use installation scripts for Linux.
In the first runtime of Nginx UI, please visit http://<your_server_ip>:<listen_port>
in your browser to complete the follow-up configurations.
Run Nginx UI in Terminal
nginx-ui -config app.iniPress Control+C in the terminal to exit Nginx UI.
Run Nginx UI in Background
nohup ./nginx-ui -config app.ini -pidfile nginx-ui.pid &Stop Nginx UI gracefully with the following command.
kill -TERM "$(cat nginx-ui.pid)"If you are using the installation script for Linux, the Nginx UI will be installed as nginx-ui service in systemd. Please use the systemctl command to control it.
Start Nginx UI
systemctl start nginx-uiStop Nginx UI
systemctl stop nginx-uiRestart Nginx UI
systemctl restart nginx-uiOur docker image uozi/nginx-ui:latest is based on the latest nginx image and can be used to replace the Nginx on the host. By publishing the container's port 80 and 443 to the host, you can easily make the switch.
- When using this container for the first time, ensure that the volume mapped to /etc/nginx is empty.
- If you want to host static files, you can map directories to container.
- If you are upgrading from an older image, see the Docker WebSocket fix guide for required
conf.d/nginx-ui.confupdates.
Deploy with Docker
-
Then deploy nginx-ui like this:
docker run -dit \
--name=nginx-ui \
--restart=always \
-e TZ=Asia/Shanghai \
-v /mnt/user/appdata/nginx:/etc/nginx \
-v /mnt/user/appdata/nginx-ui:/etc/nginx-ui \
-v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \
-p 8080:80 -p 8443:443 \
uozi/nginx-ui:latest- When your docker container is running, Log in to nginx-ui panel with
http://<your_server_ip>:8080/install. If you change the port mapping, access Nginx UI through the host port mapped to container port80instead.
Deploy with Docker-Compose
-
Create a docker-compose.yml file like this:
services:
nginx-ui:
stdin_open: true
tty: true
container_name: nginx-ui
restart: always
environment:
- TZ=Asia/Shanghai
volumes:
- '/mnt/user/appdata/nginx:/etc/nginx'
- '/mnt/user/appdata/nginx-ui:/etc/nginx-ui'
- '/var/www:/var/www'
- '/var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock'
ports:
- 8080:80
- 8443:443
image: 'uozi/nginx-ui:latest'- Then creat your container by:
docker compose up -d- When your docker container is running, Log in to nginx-ui panel with
http://<your_server_ip>:8080/install. If you change the port mapping, access Nginx UI through the host port mapped to container port80instead.
