Tutorial problem with NGINX...?

This works for me in Nginx. Maybe you can find a hint here.

httpd.conf

Code:

user nobody;
worker_processes  2;

#error_log  logs/error.log;
#error_log  logs/error.log  notice;
#error_log  logs/error.log  info;

#pid        logs/nginx.pid;


events {
   worker_connections  1024;
}


http {
    server_names_hash_bucket_size 128;
    server_names_hash_max_size 1024;
    
    ssl_session_cache   shared:SSL:10m;
   ssl_session_timeout 10m;
    
   include       mime.types;
   default_type  application/octet-stream;
    index index.php index.html index.htm;

   #log_format  main  '$remote_addr - $remote_user [$time_local] "$request" '
   #                  '$status $body_bytes_sent "$http_referer" '
   #                  '"$http_user_agent" "$http_x_forwarded_for"';

   access_log off;
    
    server_tokens off;

    # copies data between one FD and other from within the kernel
    # faster then read() + write()
    sendfile on;

    # send headers in one peace, its better then sending them one by one
    #tcp_nopush on;

    # don't buffer data sent, good for small data bursts in real time
    #tcp_nodelay on;
    
    client_body_timeout 10s;
    client_header_timeout 10s;
    keepalive_timeout 10s 10s;
    send_timeout 15s;
    
    client_max_body_size 8M;

    # Gzip Settings
   gzip  on;
    gzip_disable "msie6";
    
    gzip_vary on;
    gzip_comp_level 6;
    gzip_types text/css text/x-component application/x-javascript application/javascript text/javascript text/x-js text/richtext image/svg+xml text/plain text/xsd text/xsl text/xml image/bmp application/java application/msword application/vnd.ms-fontobject application/x-msdownload image/x-icon image/webp application/json application/vnd.ms-access application/vnd.ms-project application/x-font-otf application/vnd.ms-opentype application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.database application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.chart application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.formula application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.graphics application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.spreadsheet application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.text audio/ogg application/pdf application/vnd.ms-powerpoint application/x-shockwave-flash image/tiff application/x-font-ttf audio/wav application/vnd.ms-write application/font-woff application/font-woff2 application/vnd.ms-excel;

       }
   }
    
    include /usr/local/nginx/conf/sites-enabled/*.conf;
}
