I just ordered a server from serverdeals.org . I am having a weird problem that even support can't find out what is that

They gave me a raw server and i install nginx just as i wanted(its successful) However when i went to http://serverip/ , browsers says page not available(aka offline)

What could it be ...First time i am getting this Its definely not an installation error on my part as i have installed nginx on numerous servers till date

What can the server guys missed? I can ssh and login via ftp fine though

UPDATE:

Active Internet connections (only servers)

  • Like the post below, ensure your firewall allows port 80 access. What OS are you on?

  • I once had a situation where this port was blocked by an iptables rule on a so called managed-server.

Make sure you actually started nginx:

service nginx start

Make sure you opened port 80 in the firewall:

system-config-firewall-tui   # (Red Hat/CentOS)
# (You're on your own for anything else)

  • Yes nginx has been started......no firewall install on system
