Question
Code-server.my_domain not directing to the code-server page
Hello!
I’m trying to setup code-server on CentOS 7, but I am unable to get to code-server.my_domain.
I am able to go to http://my_domain (which directs me to the CentOS welcome page), but going to code-server.mydomain or http://code-server.mydomain gives me the following message in Firefox:
“Hmm. We’re having trouble finding that site.
We can’t connect to the server at code-server.my_domain”
I’ve been following the instructions here, and I’ve gotten through step 2: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-the-code-server-cloud-ide-platform-on-centos-7
I’ve copied and pasted the code into the /etc/nginx/conf.d/code-server.conf file, and it looks like this:
server {
listen 80;
listen [::]:80;
server_name code-server.my_domain;
location / {
proxy_pass http://localhost:8080/;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection upgrade;
proxy_set_header Accept-Encoding gzip;
}
}
Not sure what to do from here.
Looking forward to hearing back!

Have you confirmed your DNS record is pointing to the servers IP?

I think so.
I have two A records:
mydomain -> myserverip
www.mydomain -> myserverip
And 3 NS records:
mydomain -> ns1.digitalocean.com
mydomain -> ns2.digitalocean.com
my_domain -> ns3.digitalocean.com
I believe that’s all that the tutorial says is required. I did briefly try adding code-server.mydomain -> myserver_ip, but that didn’t seem to work either, so I removed it.
