install on wp site

absurdsmash

forum.mydomain.com now succesfully loads the nodebb forum! Thank you so much!

However,

I still have mydomain.com showing Welcome to Gninx, while previously, before I installed nginx, there was a wp-sites displayed (installed via ee). I want that wp-site to be displayed on mydomain.com, and obviously not welcome screen from nginx.
Also, www.forum.mydomain.com does not work; only forum.mydomain.com. How can I resolve that?

cd /etc/nginx/sites-available && ls

22222, default, forum.mydomain.com

nano forum.mydomain.com

server {

listen 80;

server_name mydomain.com;

location / {
    proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
    proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
    proxy_set_header X-NginX-Proxy true;

    proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:4567/;
    proxy_redirect off;

    # Socket.IO Support
    proxy_http_version 1.1;
    proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
    proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
}
}

This forum.mydomain.com file is exactly the same as in the sites-enabled folder.

On digital ocean I now have, under Networking, Domains: 1. forum.mydomain.com, 2. mydomain.com

Zone file forum.mydomain.com record:

@absurdsmash

First of all change the server_name for forum.mydomain.com to forum.mydomain.com and restart the nginx. Second of all please show the configuration of default and 22222 so that we can find out which is the proper config for mydomain.com.

absurdsmash

@Peter-Zoltan-Keresztes Thank you. Allright, here we go:

cd /etc/nginx/sites-enabled
ls
22222 default forum.mydomain.com test

nano 22222

nano default

http://pastebin.com/RuFmEqBJ

nano forum.mydomain.com

http://pastebin.com/eqFJ9vtt

I just dont get how nginx works. Im gonna try and read some more info on nginx.

Edit: just noticated theres a slight typo on the last paste. it says yserver, i fixed that now.
And just to be clear, I have my forum running on forum.mydomain.com. However mydomain.com now displays a welcome to nginx message, while previously it was a wp site.

Edit2: now removed default and now both mydomain.com, as well as forum.mydomain.com go to nodebb forum.

Can you post your nginx.conf too?

absurdsmash

Hi @yariplus

Here it is:

Also noticed registration and login is a little slow.

yariplus

Is there anything in the conf.d directory?

Does your machine have 4 CPU cores?

absurdsmash

@yariplus Yes, there is:

  ls conf.d

blockips.conf fastcgi.conf upstream.conf

nano blockips.conf
http://pastebin.com/nhjzwu4V

nano fastcgi.conf
http://pastebin.com/jjJRhcsi

nano upstream.conf

I have an ubuntu 16.04 droplet on digital ocean. 512 MB Memory / 20 GB Disk / AMS2 - Ubuntu 16.04.1 x64

yariplus

Well, your worker_connections is way too high, according to the nginx docs, it should be 1024 or less. That might possibly be causing connection issues.

I can't find anything that might be causing the problem though.

@yariplus Thanks for the help, but I guess it was not the solution. Thanks anyway, im going to try again
