I can ping the server but I can’t reach the server through the IP.  
If someone can help me, it would be great ! 🙂

Have you try localhost on the server (use lynx or somethink else)?  
I think the default.conf is it:

server {  
listen 80;  
server\_name localhost;  
…

will be only used if you do something likehttp://localhost  
So change it to your domain.
