Do you still have a Domain (Subdomain) in your Plesk system named testvultr1cc.nicolameyer.com or was that subdomain deleted before?

If and only if you have deleted the domain, your Nginx configuration directory contains a symbolic link that is pointint to a non-existent physical file. For that reason you are seeing the error message. For unknown reason that symbolic link was not removed. If and only if you have deleted the domain, you can safely remove that symbolic link, e.g.
# rm /etc/nginx/plesk.conf.d/vhosts/testvultr1cc.nicolameyer.com.conf
Then run
# nginx -t
to verify that the syntax error has been resolved (maybe there are more errors ...).
Afterwards, go into web server configurations troubleshooter and Rebuild>Broken to remove the error message.
I'd also run a
# plesk repair db -y
afterwards, to ensure that the psa database is consistent (again).
 
Hello i followed you instructions gives me 1 error... and repaired in DB but if i go to the

the error is still there... at this time nginx is not active not know if it the problem?

Is the error message still exactly the same?

What is the output of

# ll /etc/nginx/plesk.conf.d/vhosts/testvultr1cc.nicolameyer.com.conf

?
 
ls: cannot access '/etc/nginx/plesk.conf.d/vhosts/testvultr1cc.nicolameyer.com.conf': No such file or directory

the message i take in website and domain is the same
 
nginx: the configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf syntax is ok
nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test is successful
 
Please go to Tools & Settings > Webserver Configurations Troubleshooter
click
"Rebuild" > "Broken"

What is the result?
 
It is a strange behavior, because Plesk claims that the zz010_psa_nginx.conf file contains a wrong entry, but this file only includes the configuration files from other directories. Apparently, as "nginx -t" does not show any syntax errors, I wonder why Plesk claims that the etc/nginx/plesk.conf.d/vhosts/testvultr1cc.nicolameyer.com.conf file is missing, because there is no reference to that file in zz010_psa_nginx.conf and the subdirectories.

I think that I once saw a similar issue where the reference was not actually in vhosts, but in forwarding, wildcards or webmails directories. So just to be sure I'd like to check that, too.

We need to look into some more files.

What is the output of
# less /etc/nginx/conf.d/zz010_psa_nginx.conf
?

Then please also show the output of these commands:
# ll /etc/nginx/plesk.conf.d/webmails/testvultr1cc.nicolameyer.com.conf
# ll /etc/nginx/plesk.conf.d/vhosts/testvultr1cc.nicolameyer.com.conf
# ll /etc/nginx/plesk.conf.d/forwarding/testvultr1cc.nicolameyer.com.conf
# ll /etc/nginx/plesk.conf.d/wildcards/testvultr1cc.nicolameyer.com.conf

If you have "locate" installed, please run
# updatedb
and then
# locate testvultr1cc.nicolameyer.com.conf
and also give the output here. If you don't have a locate command, omit this step, never mind.

Then I also ask to show me all error entries from the Webserver Configurations Troubleshooter. You can select all error entries like this:

O.k., just after my last post, the info on the custom template came in. What is the reason for the existance of that custom template? What is the change in that? If you do not need a customization of the web server configuration, can you remove the custom templates and use the Plesk original templates to create webserver configuration files?
 
less /etc/nginx/conf.d/zz010_psa_nginx.conf
ouptput this..

That's fine. I was expecting that the file does not exist. It is the correct expected behavior when the subdomain was deleted.

Now for the last missing step, to see all the error entries in webserver configurations troubleshooter?
 
So these are all the domains that exist on the server?

What about your custom webserver configuration templates? Why are they custom and what exactly is the customization in these templates? Have you considered to revert to the default Plesk webserver configuration templates?

Do you actually want to use Nginx or is disabling Nginx an option for you?
 
i'm using litespeed that not need nginx so it is not active now and i not need
i presume that using litespeed nginx is in conflict and must be deactivated..
i not know why i use custom templates
where i can find it? the template
how to try to reverse the template?
