Hi,
Guys please I’m stuck on hosting my website in LEMP stack on centos 7 for about a week now :(
I’ve been through a lot of tutorials but none of them works when it comes to hosting in a custom root.
When I access my IP I get the nginx’s welcome but when I try with my domain [maydara.ovh](http://) I get a 503 error.
Now here is my config:

• I have wordpress and an info.php file on my root
• The root is owned by nginx
• My FW & SELinux are disabled
• I’m using cloudflare as DNS provider nginx.conf

user  nginx;
worker_processes  1;
