Swap lighttpd for nginx - nextcloud no longer reachable from internet

Troubleshooting
1

Hi,

I removed lighttpd and installed nginx. (Easier proxy setup for a couple of other services running on my machine)

I reinstalled pihole and this is working again (nginx is working as well I suppose)

I can access nextcloud using my local IP without issue. (Using http)

But I cannot access nextcloud via my domain from the internet.

ERR_ADDRESS_UNREACHABLE

I even reinstalled nextcloud but to no avail.

When I open my domain without /nextcloud, I get presented the lighttpd placeholder page (although I uninstalled lighttpd). Shouldn’t that show the nginx placeholder page?

I need some help to troubleshoot. Where to start?

Many thanks in advance.

Thanks
T

I guess I solved this by recreating the certificates via dietpi-letsencrypt

All good for now.

Yes for the new web server, certificates would need to be configured. Otherwise Nginx is not aware on them.

Is the lighttpd placeholder page expected or should it show an nginx specific one?

It’s just a html page located within /var/www. It could be everything. You can remove the file or replace it with an own one. There is no direct relationship to the web server used.

Understood. Thank you!
