After going through the tutorial to set up the nginx server on my droplet configured with untubu, my root domain is successfully displaying the sample message set up in the tutorial. The issue is that I also went to set up a subdomain, but when I attempt to navigate there, the browser just spins until the connection timed out. To make things more confusing for me, I am able to successfully get the contents of the subdomain via curl request.
I have been spinning my wheels on this for a bit and everything I have tried so far has not worked. Any help would be appreciated!

Hello @robertszigeti
I would also assume that this is a temporal DNS issue due to the recent changes that you’ve made.
As already mentioned you can clear your browser’s cache and also attempt a DNS cache flush on your computer in order to speed up the process and have the subdomain loading without issues.

Hi there,
In addition to what has already been mentioned, what I could suggest is trying the following:
tail -100 /var/log/nginx/error.log
Let me know how it goes!
Best,

Hi @robertszigeti,
This sounds like DNS propagation to me. Please bear in mind that DNS propagation can take up to 24 hours and while it’s usually faster, in some cases it does take so much time.
Additionally, check your DNS records in case you don’t have a duplicate record for your Subdomain pointing it to different places, which might cause a conflict.
Let me know how it goes! Regards, KFSys
