If you see the error “Job for nginx.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See “systemctl status nginx.service” and “journalctl -xe” for details.”

Check the error log to see what the problem is. We can use tail to display the last 200 entries.

sudo tail /var/log/nginx/error.log -n 200
