Issue Map Directive

[JoshCCL]

Server operating system version

Ubuntu 24.04

Plesk version and microupdate number

18.0.65

Hi all, looking for a little help.


We're trying to add some custom entries in to our nginx.conf file but Plesk won't allow us to enter them.

We're trying to add:

map $http_host $MAGE_RUN_CODE {

websitea.com base;

websiteb.eu eu_website;

}


but it shows an error when trying to save, saying:


Invalid nginx configuration: nginx: [emerg] "map" directive is not allowed here in /var/www/vhosts/system/dev.mysite.com/conf/vhost_nginx.conf:1 nginx:configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test failed

We have tried a second way, making a custom .conf file and including it via the additional nginx directives but the same error is returned.


If we edit the file directly, it is at risk of being overwritten by Plesk.

The map directive is valid only in the http context: Module ngx_http_map_module

The Additional nginx directives are included in the server context which is within the http context.

In order to set map directive, create a .conf file in /etc/nginx/conf.d/
