Question Configure nginix outside domain

cirodev

New Pleskian
Server operating system version
UBUNTU 22
Plesk version and microupdate number
18.0.60
Hello,
I've a web server with ubuntu 22 and Plesk Obsidian Web Admin Edition 18.0.60

I didn't find a way to configure nginx outside domain.

I need to configure subdomain that point to other service not apache.

Actually my domain, example.com, works fine on apache but i want redirect subdomain to other port.

Thanks
 
I am not entirely sure if I understand you questions correctly. However you can add Additional Nginx Directives to a subdomain via Domains > sub.example.com > Hosting & DNS > Apache & nginx Settings.
 
The subdomain is not defined under plesk beacuse it's not a web site and it's not deployed under apache. It's a different service.
 
I've created a subdomain to try your suggestion. In the section that you had described, I tried to put this

location / {
proxy_pass http://0.0.0.0:5000
proxy_set_header Host $host;
server_name example.domain.com;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
}

but plesk aware me these configuration is wrong for file vhost_nginx.co
 
You also need to disable the "Proxy mode" in the "Apache & nginx Settings" and I recommend to disable PHP for this subdomain as well.
 
I had to do a lot of action before obtain right result.

First I created a subdomain

Then I create a specific certificate for subdomain (wilde card let's encrypt dosen't work)

After that I disabled apache/domain type for subdomain

Finally I changed content of server.conf under plesk folder of ningx
