First of all, let me state that I am brand new to nginx and I have not yet gotten to that point where I am able to diagnose issues on my own. So I am hoping one of you guys will be able to help me out!
I had a VPS running with nginx and the following file, but then I HAD to delete the installed operating system and reinstall Arch Linux. It was working with THIS EXACT configuration file (nginx.conf) and now after I reinstalled the VPS and reuploaded the same exact conf file (I made a backup of it before reinstalling) it refuses to work. When I "`sudo systemctl restart nginx`", it gives me the following error: `"Job for nginx.service failed. See 'systemctl status nginx.service' and 'journalctl -xn' for details."`
This is the conf file I am referring to:
#user html;
worker_processes 4;
#error_log logs/error.log;
#error_log logs/error.log notice;
#error_log logs/error.log info;
#pid logs/nginx.pid;
events {
worker_connections 1024;
}
http {
include mime.types;
default_type application/octet-stream;
#log_format main '$remote_addr - $remote_user [$time_local] "$request" '
# '$status $body_bytes_sent "$http_referer" '
# '"$http_user_agent" "$http_x_forwarded_for"';

include fastcgi.conf;
}
location ~ /\.ht {
deny all;
}
}
include /usr/share/nginx/rescuechurchmiami.com/conf/*;
}
If I remove the following part:
server {
listen 80;
server_name www.brackishmedia.com brackishmedia.com;
#charset koi8-r;
#access_log logs/host.access.log main;
location / {
root /usr/share/nginx/brackishmedia.com/html;
index index.html index.htm index.php;
}
#error_page 404 /404.html;
error_page 500 502 503 504 /50x.html;
location = /50x.html {
root /usr/share/nginx/html;
}
location ~ \.php$ {
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php-fpm/php-fpm.sock;
fastcgi_index index.php;
root /usr/share/nginx/brackishmedia.com/html;
include fastcgi.conf;
}
location ~ /\.ht {
deny all;
}
}
include /usr/share/nginx/rescuechurchmiami.com/conf/*;
and do a `sudo systemctl restart nginx`, it works perfectly. However, I need those that other server block in there and that `include /usr/share/nginx/rescuechurchmiami.com/conf/*;` goes to a configuration file that is specifically for a WordPress install.
So these are the issues I am having. Any suggestions on fixing it? I don't even understand why it won't just work like it did on the former VPS anyway.
Thank you,
AJ
