Hi
<^>Now you need to enable the configuration, make a symlink to the enabled sites:
ln -s /etc/sites-available/sub.test.com /etc/sites-enabled/sub.test.com<^>
I think it's
ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/sub.test.com /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/sub.test.com
Hello,
You can easily make a website on any (sub)domain you would like to use.
First of all you would need the website files. You can put them somewhere inside /var/www.
In this "tutorial" we will use /var/www/sub.test.com
You also need to have your DNS records setup properly, so your subdomain redirects to your droplet.
For example:
sub.test.com. 1800 IN A 123.345.234.4
Now you can configure nginx to serve a specific website on a specific domain. Make a new configuration in nginx (rename test.com to anything that reminds you of the config):
sudo nano /etc/nginx/sites-available/sub.test.com
Inside the configuration place and edit the following:
server {
listen 80;
root /var/www/sub.test.com;
index index.html index.htm index.nginx-debian.html;
server_name sub.test.com www.sub.test.com;
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
}
}
<^>Inside this configuration modify the following to your specific setup:
Now you need to enable the configuration, make a symlink to the enabled sites:
ln -s /etc/sites-available/sub.test.com /etc/sites-enabled/sub.test.com
Last thing to do is restart nginx:
service nginx restart
You should now be able to check the website on your subdomain.
Hope it will work, if you have any questions just ask!
Hello, Thanks for your reply. My main project is ruuning and they are into this folder usr/share/nginx/folder
Now i want to create subdomain where i can host my blog site.
And also teach me how to configure DNS records properly for subdomain
Do exactly what I said, but change the directory inside the configuration into
/usr/share/nginx/folder
If you still can't figure it out, you can contact me on skype: cryptic-designs
