Hello all,

OS:Ubuntu 20.04

I've setup Nginx with apache + Virtualmin to work as a reverse proxy everything done correctly and i can access the default nginx page however my main website directory is in different location such as

/home/mydomain/public_html/index.php

i really don't understand how to point nginx to that location :(

vhost
/etc/nginx/site-available/
mydomain.com

[code] server {
listen 80;
root /home/mydomain/public_html;
index index.php index.html index.htm;
server_name mydomain.com;

location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php;
}

location ~ \.php$ {
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8080$request_uri;
}
location ~ /\.ht {
deny all;
}
}
[/code]

vhost
/etc/nginx/site-available/
default
