[FIXED] Why nginx virtual host is not available from internet?

Issue

I made a virtual host with nginx and I've add to host:

127.0.0.1        testapp

the virtual host http://testapp is available on my VPS but via from internet is not accessible:

server {
        listen       80;
        server_name  testapp testapp.51.x.x.172;
        ##root   html;
        root c:/apps/web;
        index  index.html index.htm;
        }

Solution

You have DNS problem. You had to define a CNAME record on your host like testapp FQDN will be testapp.yourdomain.com and target host should be your yourdomain.com which is already registered A record.

In your host you should add this line.

127.0.0.1    testapp.yourdomain.com

your problem was finished But you probably need to done a proxy revers on your web server.
