After deploying, I see the default nginx "It works!"
I have deployed a rails application from Capistrano to a VPS and when I try to access it using "APP_NAME.com" I see the standard Nginx "It works!" p.
I tried to delete the file index.html
from the folder /var/www
, now I see it as a folder: apps
, log
and tmp
.
In nginx.conf
I have:
user nginx web;
pid /var/run/nginx.pid;
error_log /var/www/log/nginx.error.log;
events {
worker_connections 1024;
accept_mutex off;

}
Am I missing something in nginx.conf
or in other files?
Also, when I stop the nginx server it doesn't make sense, I see the same page.
I am not good at deploying applications to the server, this is my first time without Heroku, so I donโt know what exactly you need to know to help with my problem. So, if you need more information, ask, I'll add it to the question.
Thank!
So I found a solution from this answer . The problem was with the Apache web server running in the background and preventing Nginx from running on 80 ports.
I stopped the Apache server and restarted Nginx and now everything works fine:
sudo apachectl stop
sudo restart nginx
You should use a passenger and set something like this in nginx config:
http {
passenger_root /home/deployer/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p327/gems/passenger-3.0.18;
passenger_ruby /home/deployer/.rvm/wrappers/ruby-1.9.3-p327/ruby;
...
or use an HTTP server for Rack like Unicorn and set in nginx config:
upstream app_server {
server unix:/path/to/.unicorn.sock fail_timeout=0;
...
server {
proxy_pass http://app_server;
...
