How To Set Up CMS on SubDomain on a 2nd Server

DISREGARD - I just needed to set up my SSL :-/

I would like to set up a sub-domain “cms.example.com”, on a second server, for my CMS. The IP address for the sub-domain’s server works, but the URL just times out. I believe its a problem with my nginx server blocks but I’m not positive.

I set up an A record on the DNS for example.com to point to the subdomain on the 2nd server. I do currently have a working subdomain for my Hike SEO portal that points to their app, “hike.example.com” with an A record recorded on the DNS for example.com

Here’s the nginx Server block for example.com, with replacement text for the IPs and domains:

server {
        listen SERVER1_IP:443 ssl http2;
        listen [::]:443 ssl http2 ipv6only=on;
        ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/fullchain.pem;
        ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/privkey.pem;
        include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-nginx.conf;
	ssl_dhparam /etc/letsencrypt/ssl-dhparams.pem;

        ssl_stapling on;
        ssl_stapling_verify on;
        resolver 8.8.4.4 8.8.8.8;

        root /var/www/example.com/html;
        index index.html index.html index.nginx-debian.html;

        server_name example.com;

        location / {
                proxy_pass 'http://localhost:3000';
                proxy_http_version 1.1;
                proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
                proxy_set_header Connection 'upgrade';
                proxy_set_header Host $host;
                proxy_cache_bypass $http_upgrade;
        }

	expires $expires;
}
server {
        if ($host = example.com) {
                return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
        }

        listen SERVER1_IP:80;
        listen [::]:80;

        server_name example.com;
        return 301 https://$server_name$request_uri;
}
server {
        listen SERVER1_IP:80;
        listen SERVER1_IP:443;

	server_name www.example.com;

	location / {
		return 301 https://example.com$request_uri;
	}
}

And here’s the server block for cms.example.com–(Note, I have not yet set up SSL on the subdomain)

server {
	listen SERVER2_IP:80;
	root /var/www/cms;
	index index.html index.htm;
	server_name cms.example.com;

	location / {
		try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
	}

	location ~ \.php$ {
		include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
		fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php/php8.1-fpm.sock;
	}

	location ~/\.ht {
		deny all;
	}
}
