NGINX server on Debian not taking my config - php

Question

I have pointed my domain rohanpatra.ga to my server and installed nginx. I am currently running two domains on the server, rohanpatra.ga, and meetsecured.tk. MeetSecured is a blockchain video conferencing platform based on Jitsi Meet, and it seems to be running fine. But, when I go to rohanpatra.ga, it just goes to the default nginx page.
I've created the config file:
sites-available directory
config file content
server {
listen 80;
listen [::]:80;
root /var/www/rohanpatra.ga;
index index.php index.html index.htm;
server_name your_domain;
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
}
location ~ \.php$ {
include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock;
}
}
And symlinked the file to the sites-enabled folder:
sites-enabled directory
Here is the root directory of the site and the content of the one file index.php:
/var/www/rohanpatra.ga directory
index.php
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
as requested:
root#debian-8gb-hel1-1:~# ps auxww |grep nginx

Answer 1

According to Nginx documentation you have misconfigured server_name parameter in your config.
Correct config should look like:
server {
listen 80;
server_name rohanpatra.ga;
root /var/www/rohanpatra.ga;
index index.php index.html index.htm;
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
}
location ~ \.php$ {
include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock;
}
}
And be sure that this FQDN rohanpatra.ga is correctly resolving on the server itself.
You can check by typing: nslookup rohanpatra.ga at server console.
