Question
Why ngixn serverblock with subdomain only responds to full URL with /index.html

I have followed this tutorial : Example link
I used a domain, and one of its subdomains in place to text.com and example.com
Both can be served but the subdomain only responds if I include http:// & /index.html
Why is this and how can I configure the server to respond to subdomain.domain.com without the full url?

Thank You It appears DNS cache was the issue. A good reason to always test web development on more than one browser or machine.

Sounds like DNS cache. Try with a different device. Sometimes differents browsers work too.
I will add that when I try subdomain.domain.com the server sends me to the default server block as though it is a non-matching request.
Only the full http://subdomain.domain.com/index.html returns the page
