Nginx keeps looking for index.html

Question

http://localhost is showing a 404 by nginx 1.13. When I look at the container logs I can see that nginx isn't passing the request off to php-fpm but is instead looking for an index.html. I can't figure out why it won't pass the request to php-fpm. /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf I've verified this file is loaded. ``` server { listen 80; root /var/www/html/public; index index.php; charset utf-8; # look for local files on the container before sending the request to fpm location / { try_files $uri /index.php?$query_string; } # nothing local, let fpm handle it location ~ [^/]\.php(/|$) { fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$; fastcgi_pass localhost:9000; fastcgi_index index.php; include fastcgi_params; fastcgi_param REQUEST_METHOD $request_method; fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name; fastcgi_param QUERY_STRING $query_string; fastcgi_param CONTENT_TYPE $content_type; fastcgi_param CONTENT_LENGTH $content_length; # Httpoxy exploit (https://httpoxy.org/) fix fa…

Accepted Answer

The problem was that despite my own vhosts configuration being in `/etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf`, `nginx -T` (which shows nginx's loaded configuration) didn't show the file having been read.

The `include /etc/nginx/conf.d/*.conf;` directive was missing from my `nginx.conf`.
