PLEASE NOTE: Native Nginx Windows builds are available at http://nginx.net
(My announcement was here: Nginx for Windows Native Builds.)
The last available Nginx for Windows build that I created using Cygwin was Nginx for Windows 0.7.50, the full page of my builds are located here: Nginx For Windows.
Updated September 29, 2009.

nginx 0.7.0 for Windows was built on Vista Ultimate 32-bit and is known to work on Windows Vista, Windows XP Professional and Windows 2000 Professional. 0.7.0 is the first of its kind from the new development branch.

nginx was compiled using Cygwin. If you have the cygwin1.dll on your system, you may have a conflict that won’t let you run nginx. Remove any other instances of Cygwin and it should work.

This easy-to-use setup package is was created to let anyone easily try out nginx on Windows. It should probably not be used in a production environment and I will likely not have the time to help if you run into problems. It works for me and may help your development efforts in some way. Use at your own risk!

Thanks for this. I was testing out a load balancer and needed some quick servers to test, your install script loaded instantly on my Windows 2000 Server VM instances. The whole process of download, install and having a running web server took less than a minute.
