Can't start nginx.

You have a duplication for your server_name declaration in one or more of your files. I sometimes run into this when I copy the default.conf file and there is a sever_name _; entry in both files.

Type “nginx -t” to see what the error may be.

How can i fixed.

Hi guys

Thanks for the your valuable suggestions.

Here I had issue like my apache2 and nginx is running in the same port number. I changed the apache2 port number from 80 to 8080 and it worked for me.
