I only know that nginx is running because I managed to install Loomio via docker and it runs fine - except that I’m unable to follow any instructions for redirecting www.mysite.com to mysite.com. When I try to check status of nginx is claims that it is not installed - how is it running at all? How to configure it?
I have same problem. I have installed nginx and configure with default setting. I get success via console ($curl http://localhost) but I get ERRCONNECTIONTIMEDOUT error http://DROPLETIP in browser in the same way with http://example.com domain. Switching the machines off/stop by running the docker stop command did not change anything.
Can you offer any guide or tutorial for production environment (specifically docker)? Thanks for your time and interest
My problem was that the firewall settings did not define a rule for port 80.
# Before
$ ufw status
To Action From
-- ------ ----
22 LIMIT Anywhere
2375/tcp ALLOW Anywhere
2376/tcp ALLOW Anywhere
22 (v6) LIMIT Anywhere (v6)
2375/tcp (v6) ALLOW Anywhere (v6)
2376/tcp (v6) ALLOW Anywhere (v6)
I add a rule for 80/tcp,
$ ufw add 80/tcp
So,
$ ufw status
Status: active
To Action From
-- ------ ----
22 LIMIT Anywhere
2375/tcp ALLOW Anywhere
2376/tcp ALLOW Anywhere
80/tcp ALLOW Anywhere
22 (v6) LIMIT Anywhere (v6)
2375/tcp (v6) ALLOW Anywhere (v6)
2376/tcp (v6) ALLOW Anywhere (v6)
80/tcp (v6) ALLOW Anywhere (v6)
And now, i access both http://DROPLET_IP and http://example.com.
I hope that will be useful for you.
