Can't reload nginx after cache on in root wordpress site

Question

Hello Brothers,

I am facing this problem

nginx: [emerg] duplicate location "/" in /etc/nginx/common/wpfc.conf:24

when I try to turn on cache on root wordpress site which also has subdir wordpress site.

I will explain,

I installed wordpress site with "sudo site example.com -wp" and "sudo site example.com -wp=custom -subfolder=/news"

Everythings works well. But Problem started when I turned on cache with

"sudo site example.com -cache=on"

I got this :

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

journalctl -xe shows "nginx: [emerg] duplicate location "/" in /etc/nginx/common/wpfc.conf:24".

This above is problem case. but I found the way to turn on cache on root wordpress site which aslo has subdir wordpress site.

First I need to turn on cache on subdir wordpress site with

"sudo site example.com -cache=on -subfolder=/news" it works without error. then

"sudo site example.com -cache=on" it also works without above problem case.

This is testng on new vps. but I am having problem in production vps with above problem, I can't reload nginx. How to revert this conditon.?

Thanks , sorry for my english.

Open your site Nginx conf file: /etc/nginx/sites-available/example.com

You will see that wpfc.conf file is duplicate.

This is how it should look with cache=off

# WebinolyCustom
include apps.d/example.com_news-php.conf;
# WebinolyCustomEnd

include common/php.conf;
include common/wpcommon.conf;

This is how it should look with cache=on

# WebinolyCustom
include apps.d/example.com_news-wpfc.conf;
# WebinolyCustomEnd

include common/wpfc.conf;
include common/wpcommon.conf;
