How to get nginx to serve up on an elastic IP
- by geekbri
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;
}
}
