Question

Updating host on Nginx (reverse proxy with Apache)

Posted October 21, 2016 3.6k views
NginxUbuntuApacheConfiguration Management

I have set up a droplet on D/O and am using serverpilot to configure apps on the droplet to manage multiple domains. I am struggling to update the path/root for individual domains.

I have tried updating the /etc/nginx-sp/vhosts.d/domain.d/main.custom.conf and also /etc/apache-sp/domain.d/main.custom.conf but if i update the nginx settings i get duplication errors and the apache-sp still points to the original path set up by serverpilot.

Any thoughts? Struggling here and site launch beckons …

Without seeing the exact setup (and bearing in mind I’m no expert) - do you need multiple location (or server) blocks in nginx to point the different domains at different paths, ssl certs etc?
Just thinking out loud here in the hope it triggers a spark in your mind :-)

i.e. see - https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-nginx-server-blocks-virtual-hosts-on-ubuntu-14-04-lts - this don’t take into account any ServerPilot specific config though

    Hey Jay - thanks for replies.

    So it seems SP disabled virtual host set-up, opting for symlinks instead to route requests to an alternative document root.

    However struggling to get this to work with either absolute or relative symlinks.
