Hello, it is my first time posting here, and I appreciate the opportunity to share my experience with nginx.
Just to give you background, I am using a VPS from Racknerd, and I use CWP (Control Web Panel), which is pretty similar to cPanel.
I tried to update the repo and use dnf upgrade -y, and what happened was, after restarting the server, nginx did not start automatically.
Here is the log of nginx:
● nginx.service - The nginx HTTP and reverse proxy server
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/nginx.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled)

The solution is to manually start nginx after a minute or two.
Thanks!
