Hey Guys.
I've been trying to figure this out from the site but I just can't :(
What I want is the following
- When a user puts it just my domain name, I want the server to give him the
index.htm file .. i.e. if the user enters in example.com I want him to get
www.example.com/index.htm
I tried the following but it I get a 403 forbidden:
server {
listen 80;
server_name localhost;
root /usr/local/www/data;
location / {
index index.htm;
}
}
Am I missing something ?
Here is my full config :
worker_processes 5;
timer_resolution 100ms;
events {
worker_connections 1500;
}
http {
include mime.types;
sendfile on;
tcp_nopush on;
keepalive_timeout 65;
gzip_static on;
gzip_types text/plain text/html text/css
gzip_http_version 1.1;
gzip_proxied any;
gzip_disable "MSIE [1-6]\.";
gzip_vary on;
open_file_cache max=10000 inactive=20s;
open_file_cache_valid 30s;
open_file_cache_min_uses 2;
open_file_cache_errors on;
server {
listen 80;
server_name localhost;
root /usr/local/www/data;
location / {
index index.htm;
}
}
}
