Plesk not good for nginx

[boosterfan]

Ok, we tried all.

Server is running good, everyhting is working. As soon as we install nginx in plesk, websites and apache stop working. Apache can not be restarted...

2 Weeks of trying such a lot. Plesk is just unusable if you wanna set up a professional nginx webserver...

Most probably this is cause by NGINX and Apache listening to same ports, port 80 and 443.

are you using Plesk Installer to install NGINX?

Hey, yes we installed the nginx with the plesk installer. Installation works with disabled nginx webserver. If we try to enable nginx apache shut down and can not be restarted. We tried all, plesk repair, new installation, the plesk troubleshooter, .... But still not working.

So we just deleted nginx and switched to only apache. But every morning now again, even apache shuts down and all websites are offline. Just restart the server and it works again until the next morning.

There is something in plesk that shoots down the webserver very morning....

Did you get any error message when you are trying to restart Apache?

Error logs are the first place you should look into.
