#error_log  logs/error.log  notice;
#error_log  logs/error.log  info;

        }

        #error_page  404              /404.html;

        # redirect server error pages to the static page /50x.html

        location = /50x.html {
            root   html;
        }

        # proxy the PHP scripts to Apache listening on 127.0.0.1:80

           fastcgi_index  index.php;
           fastcgi_param  SCRIPT_FILENAME  C:/nginx/html/$fastcgi_script_name;
           include        fastcgi_params;
        }

        # deny access to .htaccess files, if Apache's document root
        # concurs with nginx's one
        #
        #location ~ /\.ht {

        #}
    }


    # another virtual host using mix of IP-, name-, and port-based configuration

    #    location / {

    #    }
    #}


    # HTTPS server
    #

    #        root   html;
    #        index  index.html index.htm;
    #    }
    #}

}

I also ran

php-cgi.exe -b 127.0.0.1:9000

in my command prompt in my C:\PHP

The error i get is

in Localhost.

@RichardSmith I have a index.html file which works and a Folder called Script which has my PHP code in it — Ryan The Ghost, Mar 08 '21 at 08:00
Have you tried to open `http://localhost/index.php` ? Is your `index.php` script inside `c:\nginx\html` ? — IVO GELOV, Apr 05 '21 at 06:30
Yes, I have even tried 127.0.0.1:900/index.php, for the second question Yes — Ryan The Ghost, Apr 05 '21 at 06:32
First of all it looks like you can not even bind on Port 80. Are you able to see your index.html file in your browser on `localhost`? The reason for your 403 is like in this post: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/66941065/after-setting-up-server-blocks-nginx-is-not-serving-my-domain-name/66943827?noredirect=1#comment118333330_66943827. There is something wrong with your root location or the index.html. Please share a screenshot of ` C:\nginx\html` — Timo Stark, Apr 05 '21 at 16:42
@TimoStark I reinstalled Nginx and did some new configurations and its now fixed ! My issue was 1. I didnt reload nginx 2. The video i was watching to setup nginx configured nginx in a wrong way — Ryan The Ghost, Apr 06 '21 at 10:30

netsh http add iplisten ipaddress=:: Faced similar issue. Run the above command in command prompt. This should free up port 80, and you'd be able to run nginx.

Description: netsh http commands are used to query and configure HTTP.sys settings and parameters.

add iplisten : Adds a new IP address to the IP listen list, excluding the port number. "::" means any IPv6 address.

For more netsh http commands refer the netsh http commands documentation.

after making the settings restart NGiNx

And refresh the page in different browsers

service nginx restart

OR

service nginx stop

service nginx start

Check the status of NGINX

service nginx status

if the problem continues, make a full backup of the project.

uninstall the NGINX server

  apt remove nginx

   apt autoremove

   apt install nginx

when removing the server make sure that only the server is being uninstalled. so you don't have problems with other Server add-ons.

study about

https://docs.nginx.com/nginx/admin-guide/web-server/reverse-proxy/

Sadly this didn't hlep! The problem was with my nginx.conf file! — Ryan The Ghost, Apr 12 '21 at 04:18
