The directory index error you’re seeing is most likely the result of a missing index ...; directive in your server block or the nginx.conf file. The index directive needs to match the language that you’re serving.
For example, if I were serving a WordPress site, I’d want to have something such as:
server {
listen 80;
server_name domain.com www.domain.com;
root /path/to/public_html;
index index.php index.html;
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args;
}
location ~ \.php$ {
...
...
...
}
}
While the above is not a complete example, it shows where the index directive may be placed to help prevent that error. You can also modify the index directive in /etc/nginx/nginx.conf under the http block and add it there.
Under http it’s global, thus affects all server blocks and will help redundancies.
