Learning Continuous Integration with Jenkins - Second Edition

Enabling the changes and testing our Nginx setup

We will now restart Nginx to implement our new changes:

1. First, check whether there are any syntax errors in our files. Do this by typing the following command:

        sudo nginx -t 

2. If everything is successful, you should see something similar to the following command output:

        nginx: [warn] "ssl_stapling" ignored, issuer certificate not found 
        nginx: the configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf syntax is ok 
        nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test is successful 

3. Restart Nginx using the following command:

        sudo systemctl restart nginx 

4. Next, access your Nginx server using http://<Nginx_IP_Address>:80. You should notice that you have been automatically redirected to https://<Nginx_IP_Address>:80 ...
