Hi

I'm not sure what your current issue is, what is the missing module, what are the errors, so please forgive me if this post doesn't exactly address your issue.

Here's an excerpt from a Dockerfile of a custom Alpine+NGINX image in which I compile NGINX to have specific settings and modules (this is from a private repo, hence the excerpt without source link). Hopefully this could give you hints at missing arguments you might need:

I remove some unrelated commands here (In the real file I also have S6 overlay and gunicorn), I tried to clean this snippet, but I might have left some unneeded dependencies or build-dependencies (in other words, in might not be perfect since it's been customized here and not tested). If something looks strange to you, please let me know, I'll check if I did a copy/clean mistake or if there a good reason for that.

Hope this helps.
