Hi Terry. It's probably file permissions. Check what user the nginx server runs as, and make sure they have access to the files. They will need rx permission at least to every directory down to them from / as well, I believe.
To check, switch to root then do: sudo -i -u nginx (Replace nginx with the actual user name) Then make sure you can read one of the files. If you can't get a shell that way, try: sudo -u nginx bash On 18 Feb 2017 5:14 pm, "Terry Coles" <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > Back in August we had some discussion about setting up a webserver to run > in a walled > garden (literally :-) ) at the Wimborne Model Town.
