how to run nginx with root?

[zhangchunsheng]

The nginx user is www-data not root.

www-data 424 412 0 13:10 ? 00:00:00 nginx: worker process
www-data 425 412 0 13:10 ? 00:00:00 nginx: worker process

The master process of Nginx always runs as the root user; however, its child processes will run under the user and group defined by the environment variables $APP_USER and $APP_GROUP (by default, APP_USER=www-data and APP_GROUP=www-data). To change the user and group, please modify these two environment variables when you start the container.
