Install Wordpress into subdirectory on LEMP installation

Posted November 29, 2018
LEMP WordPress

Hi there,

I’ve followed the below tutorial but changing the directory to /var/www/directory-name but having a ‘502 Bad Gateway’ error when trying to view it in my browser.

Any solutions would be appreciated, thank you.

<Directory /var/www/html/> AllowOverride All </Directory>

Hi albertramsbottom.

I’ve tried it with and without the block but had the same error message.

Thanks.
