Save and close the file. To enable the server block in Nginx you need to create a symbolic link to <code>site-enabled<\/code>. Use the following command to create a symbolic link:<\/p>\n<pre>sudo ln -s \/etc\/nginx\/sites-available\/example.com \/etc\/nginx\/sites-enabled\/example.com<\/pre>\n<p>Check if there are errors with the configuration:<\/p>\n<pre>sudo nginx -t\r\nnginx: the configuration file \/etc\/nginx\/nginx.conf syntax is ok\r\nnginx: configuration file \/etc\/nginx\/nginx.conf test is successful\r\n<\/pre>\n<p>If the syntax is OK and there are no errors you can restart Nginx.<\/p>\n<pre>sudo systemctl restart nginx.service<\/pre>\n<p>Enable Nginx and PHP-FPM on system boot:<\/p>\n<pre>sudo systemctl enable nginx.service\r\nsudo systemctl enable php7.1-fpm.service<\/pre>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7-Further-steps\"><\/span>7.
