I can’t access my ghost admin panel, not sure why. Last week I could do it and I’ve only modified a bit the NGINX, which after this happened I immediately undid, but to no avail.

In the end when I try to enter to `example.com/blog/ghost` the following error shown at the bottom appears.

- What version of Ghost are you using?

- What configuration?  
My stack is, `NGINX` server, and `Next.js` for the front-end + backend with `Node.js`

- What browser?

Chrome

- What errors or information do you see in the console?

- What steps could someone else take to reproduce the issue you’re having?

Not sure really. Everything was working perfectly yesterday. Today I just for another reason decided to do `ghost restart` after adding the following to the NGINX config:

```
rewrite ^(.*[^/])$ $1/ permanent;

```

After I found that I couldn’t access the ghost admin panel I undid that line and did the `ghost restart` and that’s where this odyssey started.

Note: the /budget/ route is pointing to an external server. Not sure if that’s worth knowing.

Any ideas what I should try and do to fix this? Any help would be appreciated 🙂

Cheers!

@fillipvt what `url` value do you have set in your `config.production.json` file?

This is the whole `config.production.json` file:

```json

  "url": "https://example.com/blog",
  "server": {
    "port": 2369,
    "host": "127.0.0.1"
  },

    "connection": {
      "host": "localhost",

    }
  },

  "logging": {
    "transports": [
