Description:
I have a Bitnami Nginx 1.14.0-1 running in the AWS cloud. Of of the box, the default application is phpmyadmin. I have configured a custom app and would like the web default to point to the custom app.

ie. http://mysite.com instead of http://mysite.com/customapp

All of the documentation I can find refers to /opt/bitnami/apache2, which does not exist on this Nginx box.

How to configure a custom web app on bitnami nginx stack

Looks like I was incorrect. Phpmyadmin is not the default app. The default html path is /opt/bitnami/nginx/html/index.html and I need it to be my custom app.

Hi @DanDan,

Thanks for using Bitnami. You can find the relevant documentation here:

Get Started With NGINX Open Source

And in particular:

Create A Virtual Host

I gave up on configuring Bitnami NGINX with a custom PHP app and re-did the installation into /opt/bitnami/nginx.html.

Now, my main issue is that the primary page that loads is the default Bitnami index.html. If I delete this page, my custom index.php does not load, and gives a 403 Forbidden. It is not a file permissions issue. Other .php files in the root folder load OK.

Hi @DanDan,

Do you get the 403 error if you ask for http://domain.com/, http://domain.com/index.php or both?
