Issue with Nginx Setup

[lapis]

Hello,

I'm setting up a VPS to run a Calibre server with an SSL, but the default configuration listed on the Calibre manual page doesn't seem to work exactly right for me.

I can see the default Nginx root directory page when I visit my domain, but not the Calibre server (which is running fine).

My conf file:

server {
    listen [::]:80;
    server_name www.mydomain.com;

    location / {
        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8080;
    }
}

My default nginx.conf file:

user www-data;
worker_processes auto;
pid /run/nginx.pid;
include /etc/nginx/modules-enabled/*.conf;

events {
	worker_connections 768;
	# multi_accept on;
}

http {

	##
	# Basic Settings
	##

	sendfile on;
	tcp_nopush on;
	tcp_nodelay on;
	keepalive_timeout 65;
	types_hash_max_size 2048;
	# server_tokens off;

	# server_names_hash_bucket_size 64;
	# server_name_in_redirect off;

	include /etc/nginx/mime.types;
	default_type application/octet-stream;

	##
	# SSL Settings
	##

	ssl_protocols TLSv1 TLSv1.1 TLSv1.2 TLSv1.3; # Dropping SSLv3, ref: POODLE
	ssl_prefer_server_ciphers on;

	##
	# Logging Settings
	##

	access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log;
	error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log;

	##
	# Gzip Settings
	##

	gzip on;

	# gzip_vary on;
	# gzip_proxied any;
	# gzip_comp_level 6;
	# gzip_buffers 16 8k;
	# gzip_http_version 1.1;
	# gzip_types text/plain text/css application/json application/javascript text/xml application/xml application/xml+rss text/javascript;

	##
	# Virtual Host Configs
	##
	
	client_max_body_size 256M;
	include /etc/nginx/conf.d/*.conf;
	include /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/*;
}


#mail {
#	# See sample authentication script at:
#	# http://wiki.nginx.org/ImapAuthenticateWithApachePhpScript
# 
#	# auth_http localhost/auth.php;
#	# pop3_capabilities "TOP" "USER";
#	# imap_capabilities "IMAP4rev1" "UIDPLUS";
# 
#	server {
#		listen     localhost:110;
#		protocol   pop3;
#		proxy      on;
#	}
# 
#	server {
#		listen     localhost:143;
#		protocol   imap;
#		proxy      on;
#	}
#}

I'm running Calibre server as a service with this if it matters:

ExecStart=/opt/calibre/calibre-server /root/books --enable-local-write --enable-auth --auth-mode=basic

The one thing I changed was adding the client_max_body_size line to the nginx.conf file because I got an error stemming from http being called twice.

If anyone knows how this might be fixed, please let me know!

I had everything set up and working perfectly with Apache except for its issues handling slashes that I discovered, but I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong with Nginx.

Many thanks!
