Show the nginx configuration Plesk generated for a domain

Plesk generates a separate nginx configuration per domain in the domain’s system directory. It shows whether nginx serves static files itself and passes requests to Apache (port 7080 or 7081) via proxy_pass, or whether nginx works alone with PHP-FPM. Additional directives from vhost_nginx.conf are also referenced here via include.

Note: Do not edit this file directly, Plesk overwrites it. Make changes in Websites & Domains under Apache & nginx Settings.
