Webserver

First, remove the default NGINX configuration.

rm /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default

Now, you should paste the contents of the file below, replacing <domain> with your domain name being used in a file called MythicalPics.conf and place the file in /etc/nginx/sites-available

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name <domain>;
    return 301 https://$server_name$request_uri;
}

server {
    listen 443 ssl http2;
    server_name <domain>;

    root /var/www/MythicalPics/public;
    index index.php;

    access_log /var/log/nginx/mythicalpics.app-access.log;
    error_log  /var/log/nginx/mythicalpics.app-error.log error;

    client_max_body_size 100m;
    client_body_timeout 120s;

    sendfile off;
