Plesk hijacking a valid secure site with a "You see this page because there is no Web site at this address." message

Hi Yannek and all who replied,

RESOLVED. There was a much deeper issue at play with this Plesk

‘hijacking’.

Without the properly configured nginx and php configuration files this

problem could never have been resolved as I posted it.

Specifically, the source of this problem was random previously unnoticed

duplicate blocks/snippets of the same code in the

/etc/nginx/conf.d/YOURDOMAINNAME.conf file.

Also, in this same config file was added a line of code to **listen for

port 80 ( in addition to listen to 443 for ssl )**

See below.

Here is WHAT NEEDS TO BE AT THE HEAD OF THE DOMAINNAME.CONF FILE

server {
    listen 80;
    listen 443;

    ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/YOURDOMAINNAME.com/fullchain.pem; # managed by Certbot
    ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/YOURDOMANNNAME.com/privkey.pem; # managed by Certbot

   server_name  YOURDOMAINNAME.com www.YOURDOMAINNAME.com;

I am sure this would never have been addressed but fortunately with my

keeping up with the configuration files by comparing an already

successfully installed other domain with the

in process not yet installed site paid off.

No more Pesky Plesky default page. Hooray.

Hi, When you ping your domain from your laptop, do you get a response from your DO droplet IP ? If not, please check if there is any entry related to your domain in your laptop’s Windows 10 Hosts file. The path to it is %WinDir%\System32\Drivers\Etc\hosts

HI all,

I have tried both suggestions from your replys however there is still

no change in the situation.
