I have an EC2 instance which is serving up PHP pages with nginx and php-fpm. This works perfectly fine when accessed through the public DNS for the instance. However if I try to access the site with the Elastic IP which is bound to it, it serves up a generic "Welcome to nginx" page, even though in my server block i have listen 80 (which i thought listened on all incoming IPs on port 80).

Here is my nginx config.

server {

listen 80;

access_log  /var/log/nginx/access.log;
root   "/var/www/clipperz/";
index  index.html index.php;

# Default location
location / {
    try_files $uri $uri/ index.html;
}

# Parse all .php file in the $document_root directory
location ~ .php$ {
    include fastcgi_params;
    fastcgi_pass   127.0.0.1:9000;
    fastcgi_index  index.php;
    fastcgi_param  SCRIPT_FILENAME  $document_root$fastcgi_script_name;
}

}
