I’m getting request timeouts when I try to access any of the domains on my droplet in a browser.
All of the domains are set up in the Networking section for my droplet.
If I ping the domains from my Mac the domain names resolve to the correct IP address but the request times out. If I ping the domains when I’m logged in with SSH they work.
All of the domains have server blocks set up like this:
server {
listen 80;
listen [::]:80;
root /var/www/congressbios.com/public;
index index.html;
server_name congressbios.com www.congressbios.com;
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
}
}
There is an index.html file in the public directory of each domain root.
Running sudo nginx -t shows success
I’ve restarted nginx

Hello,
What I could suggest in this case is:
netstat -plant | grep 80
tail -100 /var/log/nginx/error.log
sudo ufw status
sudo ufw allow 80
