How to get rid of Nginx from my domain.

Posted on November 18, 2018

Hi People,

I had installed nginx to a droplet with attached to my domain. But then I deleted that droplet.

And I created new droplet and everything works fine EXCEPT when I typed www.mydomain.com, it redirected to “Welcome to nginx” page instead of my actual page.

However, if I typed https://mydomain.com, http://mydomain.com, mydomain.com. they all direct to my actual page.

Is there any way to solve this?

Thank you so much.

Hello there,

It seems like the A record for the www version of the domain name or the CNAME for www.mydomain.com is pointing to different IP address and thus causing it to load a different content.

You can check the DNS record for your domain name and update the IP address to resolve this.
