Posted on May 4, 2021

Nginx

As I was followed your tutorial on how to configure NGINX + Django. However, at last I was not able to see my application om browser. I am still getting message “Welcome to nginx!” on my browser. Currently I am using Centos7.5. Kindly let me know that how to trace the errors or steps to overcome this issue.

Thanks in advance. Regards, Venu

Hi there,

It is possible that you have multiple Nginx server block files in /etc/nginx/conf.d and the incorrect one is being served.

You can check that with the following command:

sudo ls -l /etc/nginx/conf.d

If this is the case I would recommend removing the one that is not needed.

If there is only one file in there, then it could be a problem with the configuration. Feel free to share the content of the file here so that I could try to advise you further.

Regards, Bobby
