Enable nginx module on Laravel Homestead?

Question

How can I install and enable the file upload and upload progress module on nginx with the Laravel Homestead box on Vagrant?

Answer 1

I believe all you need to do, like it was mentioned above, is log in with ssh to your box and install the nginx-extras package. So:

1. Got to your Homestead directory.
2. Do 'vagrant ssh'
3. Once in do 'sudo apt-get install nginx-extras'
4. Restart nginx with 'sudo service nginx restart'
5. Check for the module in the output of 'sudo nginx -V'. Messy but you should see 'nginx-upload-progress' somewhere near the end of the output.

Answer 2

You can do everything via ssh. Read more detail about using ssh in Homestead at here.
