Hi, Hope you are well. I created droplet and set up two virtual hosts (pointed two domains to DigitalOcean NS). One is working just fine and I can access virtual host files from domain name, but second is giving me "404 Not Found nginx/1.4.1 (Ubuntu)". Both set up properly and same way. Could it be the problem that one of the domains have same name as droplet and PTR record? Thank you! Best regards, Ignaty.

"Both set up ... same way."

That's the problem. They can not be the same. Almost the same? Yes; but not exactly the same.

Check nginx's error logs. The root path is probably incorrect.
