Multiple server_name entries not working

Server NGINX
1

Nginx 1.0.3

I have a virtual host file with a simple config:

server {
listen 8080;
server_name domain.com www.domain.com;
root /var/www/html/dm2011/pub;
access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log main;

 location / {
   index index.htm index.html;
 }

}

Requests for ‘domain.com’ return the correct index page but requests for
‘www.domain.com’ return only the “Welcome to nginx!” page. I tried
*.domain.com also as the 2nd name but the result was the same. There are
no DNS issues with both versions of the domain.

If you set
server_name domain.com www.domain.com;
what does “nginx -t” show ?

It gave a syntax OK response. It’s mysteriously fixed now after retyping
the line. Maybe my eyesight is going.

Sounds like it was a browser caching issue. Browsers cache aggressively
so always test with curl when you’re making changes.
