One quick hack (I struggled a lot with it and finally install pre-built) is to install the pre-built package of Nginx rather than compiling it from source.

For RHEL/CentOS create the file named /etc/yum.repos.d/nginx.repo with the following contents:

[nginx]
name=nginx repo
baseurl=http://nginx.org/packages/OS/OSRELEASE/$basearch/
gpgcheck=0
enabled=1

In above baseurl replace “OS” with “centos” and “OSRELEASE” with “6”.

Finally execute yum install nginx
