Hi @mhweb,

Don’t worry about Ubuntu 18.04 as it is better than 16.04, We should always use the new version, Ubuntu 20.04 LTS is out, you should go and set up your droplet using.

Can you explain what problem you’re having? You didn’t mention any problem. If you’re worried, Don’t worry, Let me know I’ll help you to set up your droplet with Ubuntu 20.04.

Use this configuration for your server:

 server {
        listen 80;
        root /var/www/public_html;
        index index.php index.html index.htm;
        server_name domain.com;

        location / {
             #try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
             try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args;
        }

        location ~* \.php$ {
              fastcgi_pass   unix:/var/run/php/php7.4-fpm.sock;
              fastcgi_index  index.php;
              fastcgi_param  SCRIPT_FILENAME   $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
              include        fastcgi_params;
        }
}
