I am trying to set up FastCGI Caching with Nginx so I followed the tutorial given in the link https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-setup-fastcgi-caching-with-nginx-on-your-vps but the problem is when I run the command
nano /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/vhost
the file opens up for editing but the file is blank,there is no “server { } directive” or the “location ~ .php$ { }” field,there is no such thing.
This is getting me worried cause the file itself is blank but the tutorial states that the file will contain some statements,so have I been missing some steps in my set Nginx set up? but my Nginx works perfectly fine and I could install Wordpress,plugins and even customize my theme and settings.
And note I did not install SSL so is that why the file is blank or is there any other probable reason?
Thank you.

You need to replace vhost with the file name of the virtual host that you are editing. You can see a list of available files by running ls /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/.
Well I solve this by using the command
sudo nano /etc/nginx/sites-available/default
That is where all the modification is to be made including for plugins like Wp Super Cache!!
