By default, Debian 7 comes with nginx 1.2.x which is a little bit out-dated. This short tutorial will introduce how to upgrade to latest nginx on Debian.
First, add necessary wheezy-backports to the sources.list (/etc/apt/sources.list):
[bash]deb http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ wheezy-backports main contrib non-free[/bash]
Then, update with the new source:
[bash]aptitude update
aptitude -t wheezy-backports install nginx[/bash]
That’s all 🙂
Troubleshoots

[bash]aptitude install debian-keyring debian-archive-keyring[/bash] - __
