New install - ubuntu 20.04, nginx - 404 Not Found

Support Installation & Hosting
1

I just installed the latest Grav on nginx on Ubuntu 20.04 based on a tutorial at How to Setup Grav CMS with Nginx on Ubuntu Linux - Geek Rewind

The tutorial installs several php 7.2 packages, but I changed them to 7.4. Also, I used a different address to get the grav package. I used https://getgrav.org/download/core/grav-admin/latest .

When I went to my url (rpallen.com.br) I got a “bad gateway” error. After some research I discovered that the config file in the sites-available directory referred to php 7-2. After changing this to 7.4, the “bad gateway” error went away. In the URL address bar of the browser, I enter just rpallen.com.br. The browser then goes to rpallen.com.br/admin and displays a page: 404 Not Found (nginx/1.18.0 (Ubuntu)).

Below is:
the code in the config file (/etc/nginx/sites-available/grav )

a list of changes I made to the php.ini file

     include fastcgi_params;
}

I am not sure if this would help. But in my nginx config, I have the following and it works fine.

    location / {
            try_files $uri @gravcms;
    }

    location @gravcms {
            rewrite ^/(.*)$ /index.php?_url=$1 break;
            include fastcgi_params;
    }

I have all fastcgi parameters including fastcgi_pass inside fastcgi_params.

Edited:
Include information about fastcgi parameters

Thanks, _anto. Though I appreciate your reply, I waited more than 12 hours for a reply and I just can’t wait that long for a reply to something as basic as installation. I used grav a year or two ago and didn’t have a problem installing it. I don’t know why it is a problem now, but, again, I can’t wait an entire work day for solving a simple installation. Consequently, I’ve already abandoned my attempt to use grav and will use something else.

I am sorry that I cannot fulfil the Support Service Level Agreement, as I just joined this forum a few minutes before I posted my suggestion to fix your problem. :rofl:

_anto, my reply was in no way a criticism of you. It is a recognition of the reality that an entire workday passed with no response to a simple request about a failed installation. I recognize that grav is an open source project so my abandoning grav is not a criticism, but rather an acceptance that the nature of the grav project is incompatible with my needs.
