How do I reset the nginx.conf file to the default?

How do I reset the nginx.conf file to the default? When I updated my ngnix today, instead of typing N, I just typed it. I’m not sure if it changed the file.

Thank you.

Check if the file changed:

md5sum /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
md5sum /usr/local/hestia/install/deb/nginx/nginx.conf

If the file is not the same:

cp -f /usr/local/hestia/install/deb/nginx/nginx.conf  /etc/nginx/nginx.conf

Anyway, if apt/dpkg modified some conf files, you should have a backup of the file with the extension dpkg-old

Thanks, they were different, is there any other file that is modified when ngnix updates something named .log?

find /etc/nginx/ -iname "*dpkg-*" -exec ls -l {} \;

xxx@xxxx:~# find /etc/nginx/ -iname "*dpkg-*" -exec ls -l {} \;
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 644 Apr 16 09:14 /etc/nginx/nginx.conf.dpkg-dist

/etc/nginx/nginx.conf.dpkg-dist

/etc/nginx/nginx.conf.dpkg-dist is the default configuration provided by the Nginx package. This means that no file has been modified.

If nginx.conf was different, it’s because Hestia modified the resolver settings in nginx.conf file to use the ones used by your server.
