Hi guys i'm very new to web dev, and getting started with nginx i just wanted to ask a few things.
Location blocks. Is the idea here to have as many location blocks as you have web pages? if a location has many files in it will nginx search if the requested file is in that location? i put a file "flood.jpg" inside my default root location (below) but i get permission denied when trying to access the file on my web browser. I do however see my nginx index homepage. To see "flood.jpg" do i need to add something to this block? location / { root html; index index.html index.htm; } i also made a file in my root html folder: html/test/filename.html This is also permission denied, but i want to ask. Is it ok accessing files like this or would it be better to make a specific location block for them, like: location /test/filename.html or location /test/ should it be INSIDE the root location block: location / or should it be a separate block? _______________________________________________ nginx mailing list nginx@nginx.org http://mailman.nginx.org/mailman/listinfo/nginx
