I am a newbie on nginx, what I am trying to do is setup nginx and be able to use it as my webserver.
The issue I am facing now is that when I try to access the IP or domain name that nginx is listening to I get 'The connection has timed out'. On the other hand if I ssh to my server and then do curl or wget on the same IP or domain I get a reply with what it suppose to print.
Basically I can hit nginx locally but not globally. Is there any permissions missing or should I use another user other than nginx in the configuration?
I tried to disable apache server and run nginx and listen to all 80 still same issue exists
My nginx settings is as follows :

Chances are that you are accessing it via a wrong URL.
The domain you refer to in your NGINX config resolves to
and thus doesn't match the IP address your server is listening on.
NMAP reports an Apache httpd listening on
69.162.77.106:80
.Verify that NGINX is running and listening on the correct IP and Port with
ps
andnetstat
.
