I followed this guide to set up Nginx with reverse proxy for Apache.
I'm having trouble getting my domain name to redirect to correct page. I have several subdomains as well, and some of them redirect correctly, and others do not.
I have the following file structure where I place my website files:

/var/www/

    html

        index.php

    mysite.com

        public_html

            index.php

    sub1

        public_html

            index.php

    sub2

        public_html

            index.html

NOTE: I have more than two subdomains, but I have only listed two here for simplicity's sake. You can assume that the others follow the same basic structure as one or the other of the subdomains listed here. There are more files than just index.php/index.html in each directory.

I seems like the server blocks that work are the ones that have index.html, and the ones that don't work have index.php.

When I say they "don't work", I mean that it redirects to /var/www/html/index.php instead of the correct index.php file in the server's corresponding directory.

For example, if I go to mysite.com, instead of taking me to /var/www/mysite.com/public_html/index.php, it takes me to var/www/html/index.php.

Likewise, when I visit sub1.mysite.com, I am taken to var/www/html/index.php.

When I visit sub2.mysite.com, I am taken to var/www/sub2/public_html/index.html.

I think this has something to do with config in step 11, where PHP files are redirected to Apache, but I can't figure out how to redirect them to the correct directory.

Here are my config files (with PII subbed out):

/etc/nginx/sites-available/apache

server {

    listen 80;

    server_name mysite.com www.mysite.com;

    root /var/www/mysite.com/public_html;

    index index.php index.htm index.html;



    location / {

        try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php;

    }



    location ~ .php$ {

        proxy_pass http://<server-ip>:8080;

        proxy_set_header Host $host;

        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;

        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;

        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;

    }



    location ~ /.ht {

        deny all;

    }

}



server {

    listen 80;

    server_name sub1.mysite.com www.sub1.mysite.com;

    root /var/www/sub1/public_html;

    index index.php index.htm index.html;



    location / {

        try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php;

    }



    location ~ .php$ {

        proxy_pass http://<server-ip>:8080;

        proxy_set_header Host $host;

        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;

        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;

        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;

    }



    location ~ /.ht {

        deny all;

    }

}



server {

    listen 80;

    server_name sub2.mysite.com www.sub2.mysite.com;

    root /var/www/sub2/public_html;

    index index.php index.htm index.html;



    location / {

        try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php;

    }



    location ~ .php$ {

        proxy_pass http://<server-ip>:8080;

        proxy_set_header Host $host;

        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;

        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;

        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;

    }



    location ~ /.ht {

        deny all;

    }

}

/etc/apache2/sites-available/mysite.com.conf

<VirtualHost *:8080>

    ServerName mysite.com

    ServerAlias www.mysite.com

    DocumentRoot /var/www/mysite.com/public_html

    <Directory /var/www/mysite.com/public_html>

        AllowOverride All

    </Directory>

</VirtualHost>

/etc/apache2/sites-available/sub1.conf

<VirtualHost *:8080>

    ServerName sub1.mysite.com

    ServerAlias www.sub1.mysite.com

    DocumentRoot /var/www/sub1/public_html

    <Directory /var/www/sub1/public_html>

        AllowOverride All

    </Directory>

</VirtualHost>

/etc/apache2/sites-available/sub2.conf

<VirtualHost *:8080>

    ServerName sub2.mysite.com

    ServerAlias www.sub2.mysite.com

    DocumentRoot /var/www/sub2/public_html

    <Directory /var/www/sub2/public_html>

        AllowOverride All

    </Directory>

</VirtualHost>

I have created the symlink between /etc/apache2/sites-available/ and /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/ as well as between between /etc/nginx/sites-available/ and /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/ as described in the guide.
