Followed tutorial but site is not working

Posted on December 10, 2013

Hello everyone,

I followed every step of this tutorial ( https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-use-the-digitalocean-ghost-application?utm_source=email&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Ghost-Halloween-Promo )

But I keep receiving the “403 Forbidden You don’t have permission to access / on this server.”

My domain is almeidamarcell.com and portugues.almeidamarcell. Both aren’t working. But when I try access via my IP address they work fine.

Ghost and nginx are running fine, I checked their status with “service nginx status”

PS: Funny thing, on my webpage the error says “Apache/2.2.15 (CentOS) Server at portugues.almeidamarcell.com Port 80” But I’m using Ubuntu and nginx as told in the tutorial above.

Ok, I don’t know what just happened. But now everything is working fine and I didn’t do anything.

Well, that’s good news.
