Because of this Nginx will be down when use Mod_Security too., issues with PCRE libraries.
I tested and after normal updating it gives errors and Nginx will go down. Look here.
Going back to Nginx ver. 1.21.4 everything will be OK.
Hope this helps to somebody.

Thank you for the information George. I had no opportunity to update nginx yet and now the version has been recalled I think. At least DirectAdmin doesn't show the update to me. Sorry to hear that you had troubles! I think in my case it might work out as expected as I don't do nginx and apache2 but only nginx standalone.

and now the version has been recalled

What do you mean, I don t know anything about an recall , where did you see it ?
Anyway, updated all our server with the latest version , had no any problems (must admit we dont use mod_security on these boxes)

CustomBuild 2.0.0 (rev: 2829) doesn't show me nginx 1.21.5. In the Build tab of CustomBuild. I still see version 1.21.4 listed.

still see version 1.21.4 listed.

You are right mine friend, just added by DA update I see.
I hate when DA downgrade stuff without people letting now the reason but I assume this has to do with the mod_security problem

 

[warg]

Yes, I assume the same and yep it's a bit annoying to don't know the reason but at the end it's always a good reason and most likely you will find some fourm thread so it's not too bad.
