I have a digitalocean droplet and I want to run a laravel project. I used this tutorial https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-deploy-a-laravel-application-with-nginx-on-ubuntu-16-04
The thing is that it displays a 403. I saw on other questions that they missed the public directory or they had the path wrong, but in my case I got a 403 when I have the public dir correct, and a 500 when I have it wrong.
My nginx error log says
2017/09/29 13:58:16 [error] 15176#15176: *2 directory index of "/var/www/laravel/public/" is forbidden
My nginx sites-available/my-site.com
server { listen 80; listen [::]:80; # SSL configuration # # listen 443 ssl default_server; # listen [::]:443 ssl default_server; # # Note: You should disable gzip for SSL traffic. # See: https://bugs.debian.org/773332 # # Read up on ssl_ciphers to ensure a secure configuration. # See: https://bugs.debian.org/765782 # # Self signed certs generated by the ssl-cert package # Don't use them in a production server! # # include snippets/snakeoil.conf; root /var/www/laravel/public; # Add index.php to the list if you are using PHP index index.html index.htm index.nginx-debian.html; server_name my-site.com www.my-site.com; location / { # First attempt to serve request as file, then # as directory, then fall back to displaying a 404. try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string; }

Answer
The answer is right there in your nginx config. It is also shown in the tutorial you link to.
# Add index.php to the list if you are using PHP index index.html index.htm index.nginx-debian.html;
You have not added index.php.
