Today I updated my webserver, and while I do have a backup, I wish to resolve the following issue.
After a reboot after the apt-get update and apt-get upgrade, NGINX started to ignore the virtual-hosts. The domains are still operational, but they are directed to the /usr/share/nginx/www/html/index.php file apparently, which contains: 'phpinfo();' in php tags.
The 'default' file for virtual-hosts and original conf settings are not present, only my customized nginx.conf. Therefore I have already ran out of possible issue's I can think of.
