How to run a daily cron job? [nginx]

I need help creating a backup script for Rackspace Cloud sites.

The sites need daily backups for both the web site & their mysql databases (some sites have as many as 4 databases), the backups then need to be ftp'd off-site.

It appears that i can only achieve this via cron jobs. Rackspace show an example backup script but only show how to push files to cloudfile storage (see below).

I am on Ubuntu 12.04, I have the latest stable version of nginx added to my ppa

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nginx/stable -y

It has been running perfectly for nearly a year.

I am developing an application against a remote https web service. While developing I need to proxy requests from my local development server (running nginx on ubuntu) to the remote https web server.

I added a server stanza to my virtual.conf, and now nginx seems to have a problem reloading the config.

At this point I don't know what exactly is going wrong or how to debug better.

Hi there,

I'm trying to get NGINX set up as a reverse proxy server for multiple SSL sites on one IP using SNI.

I try to deploy my app via capistrano. It was done, but when I start to nginx and show my site in the browser I see 'We're sorry, but something went wrong.'

It is bad. I use unicorn.

I'm working on a site that uses nginx as web server. I recently upgraded to a higher virtual hosting plan on linode and since them the site has been randomly hanging up and not responding. Rebooting the server fixes the issue temporarily, until it happens again around 1-4 times per day.

I'm getting these ntpd log messages every time before the ser stops working.

I have set up Nginx as a reverse proxy to Apache on a web server.

Nginx is listening on 0.0.0.0:80 and passing through to 127.0.0.1:81

This all seems to be working fine, except when I first load the site at the root level (i.e.

os: centos6x build install nginx and php both from the source nginx.org php.net

i donot have configed nginx server before.
