I installed Drupal using the corresponding article, but eventually couldn’t find even the /var/www directory. Is there a sites/all folder, or something equivalent?
Using Nginx. Will change to Nginx+Apache configuration.

Thank you for the reply. <br> <br>I managed to set up an sftp with filezilla and browse my directories but still couldn’t find it. <br> <br>I used this article: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-install-drupal-with-nginx-on-an-ubuntu-13-04-vps
Why are you looking for the <code>/var/www/</code> directory (Apache’s default root directory)? According to the article you cited, you’re supposed to use Nginx (and not Apache). <br> <br><b>“Is there a sites/all folder, or something equivalent?”</b> <br> <br>According to <b>Step 3</b> of that same article, you were to (manually) create a new directory in which to store your drupal files. Did you do that? <br> <br><b>“Will change to Nginx+Apache configuration.”</b> <br> <br>Why would you want to do that? <br> <br><b>“… but still couldn’t find it.”</b> <br> <br>Could not find, what?
