- If no prefix juggling was performed, create a symlink for nginx into /usr/bin with ln -s /usr/local/nginx/sbin /usr/bin/nginx
- If no prefix juggling was performed, safely delete the /etc/nginx directory
- After step 7, create a symlink for the nginx directory to replace the above deleted one with ln -s /usr/local/nginx /etc/nginx
