This article is to share with you what to do if you can't open the website unknown directive due to a problem with the Nginx configuration file. The editor thinks it is very practical, so share it with you as a reference and follow the editor to have a look.

The website unknown directive could not be opened due to a problem with the Nginx configuration file

In the afternoon, the cheap hand looked at the nginx configuration file (PS: always can not remember the location / usr/local/nginx/conf/nginx.conf), changed some things slightly, saved and restarted nginx and found that the website could not be opened.

At that time, ping was connected, even vpn was connected, but the website could not be opened. It seems that it must have broken the configuration file of nginx.

After opening the file for a long time, I didn't find any problem.

The following prompt appears when executing / usr/local/nginx/sbin/nginx-t

Nginx: [emerg] unknown directive "Server" in / usr/local/nginx/conf/nginx.conf:55

Nginx: configuration file / usr/local/nginx/conf/nginx.conf test failed

In this way, it is determined that it is the problem of nginx.conf, because I am not familiar with the file structure, so I have to check it carefully against nginx.conf.default. I finally found the problem.

The correct configuration format should be:

Http {server {}}

When I revised it, I deleted the last parenthesis by mistake, which was bound to make a mistake and changed the format to

Http {} server {}

This is bound to go wrong.

Change it back and restart nginx

/ usr/local/nginx/sbin/nginx-s reload

The website is open again.
