Where/How I declare memcached server's IP with Nginx?

Question

Good day!

I have a forum configured with MyBB. Everything was up and running in Ubuntu 14.04, but my friend tried to install 16.04 on it and first saved everything (site's config, letsencrypt files, site's files, database dump, etc.). He could have done sudo do-release-upgrade, but no, he prefered to backup everything and do a clean install.

The thing is I have now the task of put everything in order, and now with an sudo nginx -t I get this syntax error:

nginx: [emerg] no port in upstream "memcached" in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/forum.example.com:54

Checking above that line 54, I see "$scheme://$host$request_uri", which must have been previously configured in the nginx.conf file... which he forgot to backup.

I have a memcached server, what I don't know is how/where to declare it. It's in nginx,conf, or in the site's .conf file?

Let me know.

Here's the rest of the configuration. Is there any other thing wrong there?

Thanks in advance.

Warm regards.
