  Looks like you were trying to use Ubuntu 13.10.
  
  Launchpad repo easyengine depends on doesn’t support – http://ppa.launchpad.net/brianmercer/nginx/ubuntu/ as of now.
  
  You may raise issue at https://github.com/rtCamp/easyengine
  
  We will try to fix it soon.
  
  If you are setting up a new server, try using Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.

    I tried that too but got the following now:

    Building dependency tree
    Reading state information… Done
    Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
    requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
    distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
    or been moved out of Incoming.
    The following information may help to resolve the situation:
    
    The following packages have unmet dependencies:

        I did, had a new VM provisioned with Ubuntu 12.04 LTS with nothing installed previously… I didn’t try again unfortunately as I decided to go with building my own package for 13.10 and the latest nginx binaries. If someone needs Purging for 13.10 and the latest mainline features I upload my build to https://launchpad.net/~cloudingenium/+archive/nginx-mainline. Install the nginx-extras package or the naxsi one for cache purging.

        Thanks for update. I am not sure if easyengine is working for you with your custom setup. If its working its find, if its not you may need to tweak easyengine on your end or manually manage sites.

Hi Rahul.
Im learning about NGINX, Im planning to migrate mi site from LAMP to NGINX based system, so Im newby on this…
Do you recommend install varnish and memcache over the default easyengine intallation???
Regards.

- Rahul Bansal says:
  
  December 17, 2013 at 12:08 am
  
  easyengine install memcache automatically for w3-total-cache’s database and object cache.
  
  We don’t recommend varnish in front of Nginx for reasons posted here – https://easyengine.io/blog/why-we-never-use-varnish-with-nginx/

Is there a reason why MySQL 5.5 is installed with Easyengine while your post https://rtcamp.com/tutorials/linux/ubuntu-php-mysql-nginx-postfix/ installs the Percona-MySQL 5.6 version?

  When we started easyengine, percona-mysql 5.6 did not have GA release.
  
  Thanks for bringing it to our notice. I posted an issue at – https://github.com/rtCamp/easyengine/issues/107
  
  We hope to fix this soon.

Hi Rahul,

I really appreciate you for creating an awesome script which have increased my productivity in setting up nginx wordpress installations. I’m interested in knowing by when the mailserver will be added to this script. It will be really helpful if you can tell me how can I install a mailserver with gui in ubuntu os. Thanks!

On a brand new, test droplet in Digital Ocean, using Ubuntu 12.04.3 x64, I tried the curl -sL rt.cx/ee | sudo bash and the ee system install command and received this http://d.pr/i/iqa

any clues?

  Check line “Failed to fetch” from bottom. Looks like when you ran setup script, digitalocean mirror of Ubuntu packages was broken. Just run “ee system install” command again.
  
  If you see that “Failed to fetch” message again for any mirrors.digtialocean.com URL, please contact digtialocean support. (Most likely you won’t need to contact anybody)

      Most likely the mirror you have connected must be undergoing upgradation.

Hey, man! This command ee stack install isn’t working anymore. I’ve found a way around it, but since I am just a beginner i’m not sure if it’s correct or not. I’ve found the command “wget -qO ee https://rt.cx/ee4 && sudo bash ee ”
Is this correct? Is there a better way of doing it?

  Hey Pedro, the installation commands you are using are for EasyEngine version 4. “ee stack” command is no longer present in version 4. You can take a look at the commands in EE4 here: https://easyengine.io/commands/
