Hello, I am new to the Ubuntu world and have been following the article, https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-nginx-on-ubuntu-20-04 however I have run into a bit of a problem! I have got to the end of step 5 and all I am getting is the default Nginx page, not what I have typed in the html block. I have it it again on a fresh ubuntu install and got the same issue. what have I done wrong!?

Thanks @KFSys ,
Don’t know what was the issue, it wasn’t in sites-enabled, and there was an issue with certbot adding info to the wrong block.
So I have wiped it all and started again, for the 4th or 5th time…and it has worked!!
Hi @patrickb,
Can you please post the Nginx configuration file for the domain you are using? Additionally please let us know the path to the file you are posting so that we know everything looks alright.
As soon as we have the Nginx configuration file for your domain, we should be able to take a look at the way you’ve configured it and see if everything is done properly or needs to be changed a bit.
Regards, KFSys
