virtual hosting in nginx

Virtual hosting in nginx is very simple :

see nginx.conf file 

one server block is generally available there .
see


server {
listen 80;
server_name _;

#charset koi8-r;

#access_log logs/host.access.log main;

location / {
   /root //html;
  index index.html index.htm index.php ;
}
}


this is default server setting. that means from all doamains this will work .

for virtual hosting define new server block 
 

:
server {
listen 80;
  server_name yourdomain.com;

#charset koi8-r;

#access_log logs/host.access.log main;

location / {
   /root /new_host;
  index index.html index.htm index.php ;
}
}





now settings have been changed

just restart nginx  and see
if traffic coming from  yourdomain.com  then it will point to /root/ new_host   directory .

else it will go to /root/html  directory and find related contents here.




thats it   . it was very simple



ask me if u want any further help .
