I need to use nginx on the CyberPanel

Hi, I want to use Cyberpanel to host my wordpress site and peertube. I wonder if I can install Nginx on this server, which also runs Cyberpanel?

I am new to set up servers. I search Cyberpanel docs as well as this forum. Haven’t find any related topics.

I tried to install nginx, but it failed:

sudo systemctl status nginx

you must configure nginx to a different port than 80 and reverse proxy litespeed/ols to nginx port

Thanks for your tips.

Other than configure a different port, what else do I need to do? Do I need to do anything for the peertube, the website use Nginx?

Yes, your website uses nginx as backend and ols as frontend

I searched online about how to

It almost all mentioned:

server {
listen 80 default_server;
listen [::]:80 default_server;

But when I run ‘vi /etc/nginx/nginx.conf’

There is no such line in this file.

#mail {

# See sample authentication script at:

# Using a PHP Script on an Apache Server as the IMAP Auth Backend | NGINX

# auth_http localhost/auth.php;

# pop3_capabilities “TOP” “USER”;

# imap_capabilities “IMAP4rev1” “UIDPLUS”;

server {

listen localhost:110;

protocol pop3;

proxy on;

}

server {

listen localhost:143;

protocol imap;

proxy on;

}

#}

Do I simply add those lines in?

I am really new to self-hosting. Can anyone please tell me how can I config Nginx on CyberPanel?

Thanks in advance.
