Resolved Where is located nginx.conf in Full Plesk Backup

lepe

Basic Pleskian
Hi

I am searching file nginx.conf (etc/nginx/ginx.conf) in a Full Plesk Backup server but I cant find it.
I can see in domains/mywebsite/backup_conf_datebackup_tgz the files httpd.conf and nginx.conf.bak but this nginx file is only of site, I search the nginx.conf server file (for all domains) and if I search from winrar "nginx.conf" it cant found any

A full plesk backup dont include folders like etc, var, lib etc of server?

best regards
 
Hi lepe,

ginx.conf
There is no "ginx.conf" at all. The file in your serverwide - folder "/etc/nginx" is named "nginx.conf" and will not be stored in your domain - specific backup - file.

Pls. have a look at the official Plesk documentation, to inform yourself, WHICH files are being stored in a Plesk backup:


As you can see, file from "/etc/nginx", or "/etc/apache2" ( or "/etc/httpd" ) for example are not included in Plesk backups, as well as the backups don't include "/lib", "/lib32", or "lib64", for example.​

The files "httpd.conf and nginx.conf.bak" are from your domain - specific system - folder: "/var/www/vhosts/system/(subdomain.)YOUR-DOMAIN.COM/conf"

Thank you for your answer. I thought Full Plesk backup could do a full server backup because my servers providers said me it when I asked him about what software could recommend (In terms of ease for beginners) to do a full server IMAGE backup

best regards
