  • normally, the ssl parameter must be enabled on listening sockets in the server block

    Backup the conf file before and test that

    unfortunately I have to leave

    @downpw not work

  • @justoverclock I can get to this in around an hour

  • @justoverclock done, i’ve removed that line and works again

    @phenomlab fixed it, removed the two lines and all works again

  • @justoverclock done, i’ve removed that line and works again

    @phenomlab fixed it, removed the two lines and all works again

    @justoverclock good 😁

    What caused the issue ? Was something new added to nginx.conf ?

  • @justoverclock you should also change this line

    client_max_body_size 5G;
    

    That could expose your server to a denial of service if someone decides to upload that large a file.

  • @justoverclock

    this line ?

        ssl_certificate /home/justoverclock/ssl.combined;
        ssl_certificate_key /home/justoverclock/ssl.key;
    
  • @justoverclock

    this line ?

        ssl_certificate /home/justoverclock/ssl.combined;
        ssl_certificate_key /home/justoverclock/ssl.key;
    

    @downpw yep exactly

  • @justoverclock those two lines

    ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/justoverclock.it-0001/fullchain.pem; # managed by Certbot
    ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/justoverclock.it-0001/privkey.pem; # managed by Certbot
    

    Are issued by certbot, but aren’t normally positioned in the server block. Very odd.

  • hello guys again, something odd happened today, i’ve noticed that my website was down, it show

    err connection refused
    

    i’ve tried to restart nginx but i get some error that i’m not understand…

    Job for nginx.service failed because the control process exited with error code.
    See "systemctl status nginx.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.

    I have not yet gone through the comments to see what they answered you,
    But never restart Nginx before checking that all the blocks are working properly (this is how you check: sudo nginx -t)
    When nginx is restarted with an error it causes all sites (error 521) to shut down until the fault is resolved.
    If the test passed successfully you can restart Nginx (how to run: sudo systemctl reload nginx)

    @elhana-fine Also worth noting that nginx -t is not disruptive, and will not cause your sites to go offline in the event that the test fails.

    I am writing this from past experience.
    Whenever the test failed, all sites on the server were shut down (and returned error 521/502)
    Maybe I’m wrong, I write my experiences

    @elhana-fine Interesting. That shouldn’t happen with a test. It’s supposed to be a dry run.

    @phenomlab
    I mean when the test failed and I restarted the nginx with the error (sudo systemctl reload nginx)
    Apparently an error in one block in Nginx affects all blocks.

    @elhana-fine Yes that will happen of course if you still choose to restart the NGINX service after making a change and the test fails. The test on it’s own will state the error and the line number allowing you to fix that first 🙂

    @DownPW said in Nginx core developer quits project in security dispute, starts “freenginx” fork: Maybe virtualmin implement it in the future… I don’t think they will - my guess is that they will stick with the current branch of NGINX. I’ve not personally tested it, but the GIT page seems to be very active. This is equally impressive [image: 1714914575066-8ac0d197-68fa-4bd8-bfa3-87237bf8f1f4-image.png] I think the most impressive on here is the native support of HTTP 3

    @Panda said in Cloudflare bot fight mode and Google search: Basic question again, is nginx necessary to use? No, but you’d need something at least to handle the inbound requests, so you could use Apache, NGINX, Caddy… (there are plenty of them, but I tend to prefer NGINX) @Panda said in Cloudflare bot fight mode and Google search: Do these two sites need to be attached to different ports, and the ports put in the DNS record? No. They will both use ports 80 (HTTP) and 443 (HTTPS) by default. @Panda said in Cloudflare bot fight mode and Google search: Its not currently working, but how would the domain name know which of the two sites to resolve to without more info? Currently it only says the IP of the whole server. Yes, that’s correct. Domain routing is handled (for example) at the NGINX level, so whatever you have in DNS will be presented as the hostname, and NGINX will expect a match which once received, will then be forwarded onto the relevant destination. As an example, in your NGINX config, you could have (at a basic level used in reverse proxy mode - obviously, the IP addresses here are redacted and replaced with fakes). We assume you have created an A record in your DNS called “proxy” which resolves to 192.206.28.1, so fully qualified, will be proxy.sudonix.org in this case. The web browser requests this site, which is in turn received by NGINX and matches the below config server { server_name proxy.sudonix.org; listen 192.206.28.1; root /home/sudonix.org/domains/proxy.sudonix.org/ogproxy; index index.php index.htm index.html; access_log /var/log/virtualmin/proxy.sudonix.org_access_log; error_log /var/log/virtualmin/proxy.sudonix.org_error_log; location / { proxy_set_header Access-Control-Allow-Origin *; proxy_set_header Host $host; proxy_pass http://localhost:2000; proxy_redirect off; proxy_set_header Host $host; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for; proxy_set_header X-Api-Key $http_x_api_key; } location /images { index index.php index.htm index.html; root /home/sudonix.org/domains/proxy.sudonix.org/ogproxy; } fastcgi_split_path_info "^(.+\.php)(/.+)$"; listen 192.206.28.1:443 ssl http2; ssl_certificate /home/sudonix.org/domains/proxy.sudonix.org/ssl.combined; ssl_certificate_key /home/sudonix.org/ssl.key; } The important part here is server_name proxy.sudonix.org; as this is used to “map” the request to the actual domain name, which you can see in the root section as root /home/sudonix.org/domains/proxy.sudonix.org/ogproxy; As the DNS record you specified matches this hostname, NGINX then knows what to do with the request when it receives it.

    @phenomlab Ah, got it working! I reversed the CSS addition to put z index high, and then I could see another error box saying fork title must be at least 3 characters. So made the new fork title longer and button responded.

    @crazycells hi - no security reason, or anything specific in this case. However, the nginx.conf I posted was from my Dev environment which uses this port as a way of not interfering with production. And yes, I use clustering on this site with three instances.
