I am using Debian, Nginx

I am a little novice in nginx

I have purchased a VPS Server, when I access my IP 33.xxx.xxx.xxx.xx through my browser either as https:// IP or http:// IP my website content is displayed, as if I had entered my domain.com in the browser.

In this case I would like to display some blocking warning like 403 Forbidden or if you can show me how to redirect the visitor who accesses the IP to a blank page.

Thanks

  • You do realise that the connection to your website is by ipaddress:port ? Simplisticly, the domain name is an index at the Domain Name Servers to obtain the ipaddress.

You need to use a server_name www.example.com; directive in your server block in the NGINX config, instead of server_name _; which matches everything.

You need two server blocks. One with a server_name matching your domain name, that serves the proper website. And another with server_name _; as a catch all that serves a error page.
