add-apt-repository ppa:nginx/$nginx

apt-get update

apt-get install nginx

sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-rpaf

sudo a2enmod rpaf

copy etc_apache2_ports.conf to etc/apache2/ports.conf copy etc_apache2_sitesavailable_default to etc/apache2/sites-available/default copy etc_nginx_nginx.conf to etc/nginx/nginx.conf

ensure any lines in apache2.conf or apache2/sites-available/default like the below:

AllowOverride None
are changed to

AllowOverride All
check for any lines in .htaccess which set the Cache-Control header as below, and remove them:

Header set Cache-Control "no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, max-age=0"
Configs were taken from the following pages:
