Run ls -l /usr/share/nginx/ This is where it is looking to save the access logs, check the directory exists and that the user you are running nginx as has write access here.

  • This comes down to unix file permissions, your user 'root' needs the ability to write to the log files, check that you didn't create them as another user first, or that the directory itself you have the write permissions to. ls -la /usr/share/nginx . Check out, tutorialspoint.com/unix/unix-file-permission.htm If you include the output of that command it might help understanding your setup.

It seems 80 port is in use, just have a checked, like

    You probably have a process bound to the HTTP port 80 (maybe apache2). You can run command



    sudo lsof -i:80 


    to get a list of processes using the port and then stop/disable web server.
