nginxの接続で「nginx: [emerg] unknown directive " "」が表示された時の対処法

はじめに

ngin.xに接続を試みるもエラーとなりました。

$ sudo systemctl start nginx.service
Job for nginx.service failed because the control process exited 
with error code. See "systemctl status nginx.service" and "journalctl -xe"
for details.

対処法

エラーコードの指示を実行。

$ systemctl status nginx.service

不要な空白" "が入ってしまって、そんな指令知らないと怒られていました。それが/etc/nginx/nginx.conf:44にあるとのこと。

$ sudo vi /etc/nginx/nginx.conf
  :set number  #４４行目を探すため、行数表示
　不要な空白を削除。おそらく全角の空白があった。

最初、行数数えていましたので(笑)、:set numberは便利ですね。カーソルモード(ESCを押したあとの状態)で入力です。

再度接続すると、無事接続できました。

$ sudo systemctl start nginx.service
$ sudo systemctl status nginx.service  #接続状況の確認
