default nginx configuration file

# Generally, you will want to move this file somewhere, and start with a clean
# file but keep this around for reference. Or just disable in sites-enabled.

Thanks!

Thanks!!

thanx bro

ok but what is that comment at the very top

Is this like the default nginx.conf file just with that agenda of yours ? We don't care if you're muslim, christian or you believe in ancient aliens, nor what's your skin colour. This is open-source. Any creature/being/entity can contribute to the whole cause

@gyrusdentatus It's not the nginx.conf file, this is config file for a virtual host usually found in /etc/nginx/sites-available/default.conf

Hey, check the previous comment

Hello I want to write this content in this file

`

location / {
proxy_pass http://localhost:3000; #whatever port your app runs on
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection 'upgrade';
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_cache_bypass $http_upgrade;
}

`

how can I do that. The solution I came up with is that to remove the whole file and paste the whole content again. This has to be this way because this is going into EC2 user data so this command have to run own there own. So the problem I am facing is that I removed the file but when I want to create the file it has no extension what do I do now. If someone have a solution it will be very helpful and is a better approach then it will also be very helpful.

You saved me , Thanks :)

I have created a new Gist that will not be edited to promote ideologies (or anything else).

You can find it here, it has both this file and nginx.conf: https://gist.github.com/MiranDaniel/7d0dfe222fbc79c1126899cb51baefb2
