> The simplest debian-like nginx.conf is something like this:

In Ubuntu/Debian the main differences are:

# debian's web server user (instead of nobody or apache)
-#user nobody;
+user www-data;

# debian's /etc/logrotate.d/nginx writes to /var/log/nginx/*.log
+error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log;
+pid /var/run/nginx.pid;

http {
- include mime.types;
+ include /etc/nginx/mime.types;

- #access_log logs/access.log main;
+ access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log;

+ tcp_nodelay on;

+ gzip on;

+ include /etc/nginx/conf.d/*.conf;
+ include /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/*;
}

I attach bellow the diff file (made using diff -bru /source... /dest...
> nginx.patch).
