无法配置 nginx 反向代理

Question

I'm running php+nginx api inside docker container. It is available on port 8080. I trying to add nginx reverse proxy to open api on address api.versite.online and frontend project on versite.online.

I installed nginx on server, added /etc/nginx/sites-available/api.versite.online config (also added symlink to sites-enabled directory), tested config with nginx -t , restarted nginx service with systemctl reload nginx , but it had no effect. api.versite.online:8080 and versite.online:8080 makes request to docker container, looks like top level nginx are ignored. Nginx access log is empty.

/etc/nginx/sites-available/api.versite.online config

server {
  listen 80;
  server_name api.versite.online;

  access_log /var/log/nginx/api.versite.access.log;

  location / {
    proxy_pass http://localhost:8080;
  }
}

Answer 1

It seems that i forgot to add a firewall rule with sudo ufw allow 'Nginx HTTP'
