This has been fixed for Debian, it should really be fixed for Ubuntu too. I don't keep the files being served in /usr/share/nginx/www/, but nginx still overwrote my index.html after an nginx -s reopen. I have a hard time seeing how this would be intended in any way - this behavior has the ability to hurt a site, not overwriting doesn't.
Hoping for a fix as soon as possible for Ubuntu, too! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to nginx in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1194074 Title: Default index.html blindly overwritten To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nginx/+bug/1194074/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
