Thanks a lot, very nice! Worked well.

Very good script a couple of errors.

line 113 there is an extra " at the end, why is the openssl commented out when centos 6.5 doesnt come with openssl

line 217 Starting nginx: nginx: [emerg] mkdir() "/var/lib/nginx/body" failed (2: No such file or directory)

The /var/lib/nginx directory doesnt exist so :- mkdir /var/lib/nginx

@peterbladen the openssl install "FROM SOURCE" is optional as most people prefer to have essential system packages supplied from distro (its in opt packages at the top)

217; yeah I missed them off, I originally left out the paths in the config
