How to fix 'Job for nginx.service failed because the control process exited with error code.'

Question

I am trying to 'service restart nginx' but it is not working and giving me the errors below.

Job for nginx.service failed because the control process exited with error code

I have tried looking around for answers but cannot find anything.

That is what it says in the configs etc

Answer 1

Error says that parameter "fastcgi_pass" is duplicated.

You should edit the file and fix the error in your configuration file that should be located in /etc/nginx/site-enabled/default (usually a link pointing to /etc/nginx/site-available/default). You can check configuration with command "sudo nginx -t"

After that you should start again the service using "sudo service nginx reload" or a similar command.
