Hi everyone, I used one-click wordpress and followed this tutorial to setup my site. I had access to wordpress, great! Then I followed this tutorial to setup Let’s Encrypt SSL. During that process, I installed nginx on Ubunto 16.04 using this tutorial. I was able to install Let’s Encrypt SSL successful!
However, I am no longer able to access wp-admin, or any part of my site for that matter, all I get is “Welcome to nginx!.” How can I remove this and get access to wordpress again? I think it might have to do with root /usr/share/nginx/html vs root /var/www/html.
Here’s my server info:
