Hi Team ,

I am configuring nginx in Windows . When i am changing the file name from index.html to sample.html or any other name it is throwing an error

403 Forbidden error

Initially i thought it is Permission error but i figured out it is the file name

How to change the default.conf to serve any files with .html extension

Thanks & Regards

Within the location block you will see:
index index.html index.htm;

There you can edit/add whatever you like.

Hi
Thank you for the Response !

I tried that way it either throws permission denied or Forbidden error. I have actually replicated same on my WSL ubuntu machine . I see all the permissions set on the Files but i still get permission denied . Please find my nginx.conf below & also the Screenshot of permissions on my files
