Configuring multiple sites on Nginx

Hi, thank you for this awesome OS. It installed perfectly in my Orange PI 4 LTS.

I have a question regarding configuring nginx to serve multiple sites.
Now my nginx only serves vauitwarden application.

From what I see from this forum, we are suggested to create a new file within sites-dietpi folder, but from what I know, we add the server_name only in sites-available server.

How to configure it to serve multiple webs with different domains?

Thank you

Hi,

depends a liftle bit on what configuration you like to add. sites-dietpi is invoked by /etc/nginx/sites-available/default within the given default server block

MichaIng/DietPi/blob/b2395dab40b886f7a773c34312edb71e695a629a/.conf/dps_85/nginx.default#L11


      
          # /etc/nginx/sites-available/default
          server {
          	listen 80 default_server;
          	listen [::]:80 default_server;
          
          
	root /var/www;
          	index index.php index.html index.htm index.nginx-debian.html;
          
          
	server_name "$hostname";
          
          
	include /etc/nginx/sites-dietpi/*.conf;
          
          
	location / {
          		try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
          	}
          
          
	location ~ \.php(?:$|/) {
          		include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
          		fastcgi_pass php;
          	}
          }

Therefore it might be best to specify new vhost within own conf file inside /etc/nginx/sites-available/

ah okay, then it is still safe to create a new vhost inside the nginx/sites-available.

Will try it later, thanks!
