I have a droplet serving five websites using Nginx reverse proxy. Everything is working fine, however after installing PhpMyAdmin I’m getting a 404 Not Found error. (http://mysite.com/phpmyadmin)

My nginx error log looks like this:

root@lamp-tor1-01:/usr/share# tail -f /var/log/nginx/error.log

2020/05/09 14:20:33 [error] 32547#32547: *57 directory index of “/var/www/” is forbidden, client: 198.84.238.174, server: 165.227.46.52, request: “GET / HTTP/1.1”, host: “165.227.46.52”

2020/05/09 14:46:37 [error] 32547#32547: *129 open() “/usr/share/phpMyAdmin”

My /etc/nginx/sites-available/default Server Block is as follows:

server {
        listen 80 default_server;
        listen [::]:80 default_server;

        root /var/www;

        index index.php index.html index.htm index.nginx-debian.html;

        server_name 165.227.46.52;

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

        location ~ \.php$ {
                include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
                fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock;
        }

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

My symbolic link looks like this:

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 May 9 15:01 phpmyadmin -> /usr/share/phpmyadmin

All of my sites are working fine with their domains, however if I try and access my ip i get a 403 forbidden error. Maybe this is related, I don’t know.

I know that this is not a new topic, but I have gone through all examples on this message board, and I’m unable to fix it. I have reset my symbolic link, and I have tried a few different configurations of my default server block. I also contacted customer support, but they are responding every 4 days now, and they just give me a link to a tutorial on how to install PhpMyAdmin, which I’ve obviously tried a few times. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!
