Vesta Control Panel - Forum

Hello, it is possible to completely turn off nginx?

Hi. If you remove nginx the control panel will not work. As the control panel is making full use of nginx

Why then it has an option to turn off nginx for some websites if its not working anyway? I have turned nginx off for some domains but then my website is not opening from port 80, i have to type domain.com:8080 (apache port). Usually apache is listening to a localhost not?

It is configured that way , Apache is listening on port 8080 and not on 80. Turning off just redirects traffic to that port , doesnt actually change the port

Can i turn off nginx and set apache to a 80 port?

Probably not, what's your beef with nginx anyways?

1. I cannot use .htaccess (set upload limits and php memory limits for each domain individually)
2. I cannot use PECL upload (because its just not working with nginx)

1.this is strange, should be work. you can use the directive php_admin_value in httpd templates

2. pecl uploading extension does not work through a proxy and work only with php as native apache extension... but can install nginx module HttpUploadProgressModule to bypass restrictions

PS: remove nginx bad for performance

This not right, control panel uses its own copy

So can i safely turn it off and set apache to port :80?
