Where is stuff in NGINX

• The location of the main Nginx configuration file depends on how Nginx was installed:

  • On many Linux distributions, it can be found at "/etc/nginx/nginx.conf".
  • Alternatively, it might be located at "/usr/local/nginx/conf/nginx.conf" or "/usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf" if not found in the default location.

• The location of available sites:

  • Typically stored in "/etc/nginx/sites-available".

• The location of enabled sites:

  • Usually stored in "/etc/nginx/sites-enabled".
  • Enabled sites are symbolic links to files located in the "sites-available" directory mentioned above.
