Play Raspberry Pi(1)System and nodeJS/nginx

Play Raspberry Pi(1)System and nodeJS/nginx

 

Download the software from here http://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/

I prefer to try RAPBIAN, because I usually use ubuntu system.

 

I download the file 2014-09-09-wheezy-raspbian.zip

Unzip the file and open distutil on MAC system.

 

Find the 16 GB disk and clean that with MS-DOS(FAT) format.

 

Open command line and type

> diskutil list

 

Unmount the disk first

> sudo diskutil unmount /dev/disk2s1

 

Write the file to the disk

> sudo dd if=2014-09-09-wheezy-raspbian.img of=/dev/disk2 bs=2m

 

Type the username and password, pi, raspberry.

 

I change the password and add one user for myself.

>adduser carl

 

Add sudoer

>visudo

root    ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL

carl    ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL

 

ctrl + X to exit.

 

Set up the static ip

> cat /etc/network/interfaces

auto lo

iface lo inet loopback
#iface eth0 inet dhcp
iface eth0 inet static
address 192.168.0.106
gateway 192.168.0.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
dns-nameservers 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4

allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet manual
wpa-roam /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf

iface default inet dhcp

 

Restart the system

> sudo reboot

 

> wget http://nodejs.org/dist/v0.10.33/node-v0.10.33.tar.gz

 

Unzip the file and go to the working directory

> ./configure --prefix=/home/carl/tool/node-v0.10.33

>make

>make install

 

It will take a great long time to compile the source codes on that small machine. I may choose this one http://node-arm.herokuapp.com

Or I can download the arm-pi.tar.gz from some URLs like this http://nodejs.org/dist/v0.11.9/.

 

I pick up to install v0.10.28 or v0.11.11. Let me start with the latest one.

 

Some discussion about “ Illegal instruction"

 

Finally I found this version is working on my raspberry pi B+. http://nodejs.org/dist/v0.10.28/

> node -v && npm --version
v0.10.28

1.4.9

 

Download and try with version 1.6.2, unzip the file and try to build that

> ./configure --prefix=/home/carl/tool/nginx-1.6.2

 

Configure not pass, I need to install this first

ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/programming/pcre/pcre-8.36.tar.gz

 

This command will help

> ./configure --prefix=/home/carl/tool/nginx-1.6.2 --with-pcre=/home/carl/tool/commons/pcre-8.36

 

It does not work well with manually installing PCRE. I may use this command to install PCRE instead.

> sudo apt-get install libpcre3

> sudo apt-get install libpcre3-dev

 

Command to test the config file

> sudo sbin/nginx -t

 

Command to start

> sudo sbin/nginx

 

Command to restart

> sudo sbin/nginx -s reload

 

Command to stop

> sudo sbin/nginx -s stop

 

 

 

nginx installation
