Check your IP to make sure Nginx is running

curl -4 icanhazip.com

To stop nginx:

sudo systemctl stop nginx

To start the web server when it is stopped, type:

sudo systemctl start nginx To stop and then start the service again, type:

sudo systemctl restart nginx If you are only making configuration changes, Nginx can often reload without dropping connections. To do this, type:

sudo systemctl reload nginx By default, Nginx is configured to start automatically when the server boots. If this is not what you want, you can disable this behavior by typing:

sudo systemctl disable nginx To re-enable the service to start up at boot, you can type:

sudo systemctl enable nginx
