I have a digitalocean account and Im trying to install ghost.

domain http://dittmaraz.life.
admin http://dittmaraz.life/ghost/

How do I tell nginx to serve the ghost installation instead of that default ‘welcome to nginx’ page?

config.production.json
{
“url”: “http://dittmaraz.life”,
“server”: {
“port”: 2369,
“host”: “127.0.0.1”
},
“database”: {
“client”: “mysql”,
“connection”: {
“host”: “localhost”,
“user”: “ghost-841”,
“password”: “eHx5S)QK41(&@0o-/^8H”,
“database”: “ghost_prod”
}
},
“mail”: {
“transport”: “Direct”
},
“logging”: {
“transports”: [
“file”,
“stdout”
]
},
“process”: “systemd”,
“paths”: {
“contentPath”: “/var/www/ghost/content”
},
“bootstrap-socket”: {
“port”: 8000,
“host”: “localhost”
}
}

Need to see the nginx config as well in order to be able to help. Overall, it should point to /var/www/ghost/ (where you ran the ghost install). If you didn’t use the one click install from DO maybe you should try that.

Also, please do not post your user and password on a public forum (not ok from a security point of view).

The host nginx file where you define the root folder. The nginx.conf file appears ok (just scanned it though).

I would recommend to format your config properly. I makes it hard to help you at the moment.

Per example:

{
    "url": "http://localhost:2368",
    "database": {
        "client": "sqlite3",
        "connection": {
            "filename": "content/data/ghost-dev.db"
        },
        "debug": false
    },
    "auth": {
        "type": "password"
    },
    "paths": {
        "contentPath": "content/"
    },
    "privacy": {
        "useRpcPing": false,
        "useUpdateCheck": true
    },
    "useMinFiles": false,
    "printErrorStack": true,
    "caching": {
        "theme": {
            "maxAge": 0
        },
        "admin": {
            "maxAge": 0
        }
    }
}

I have a blog post about setting up a Ghost blog with Docker and Docker Compose using Nginx on a Digital Ocean droplet here:
