upstream php {
        server 127.0.0.1:9000;
}

Save and exit the file.

Now, create a new configuration file for ONLYOFFICE and paste the following content:

server {
   listen 80;
   server_name document.server;
   server_tokens off;

   access_log /var/log/nginx/document.server.access.log;
   error_log /var/log/nginx/document.server.error.log;

   location / {
        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8000;
        proxy_buffer_size 64k;
        proxy_buffers 4 64k;
        proxy_read_timeout 3m;
        proxy_send_timeout 3m;
        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;
        proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
        proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
        proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
    }

   location ~ ^/(web-apps|welcome|fonts|images)/ {
        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8000;
        proxy_buffer_size 64k;
        proxy_buffers 4 64k;
        proxy_read_timeout 3m;
        proxy_send_timeout 3m;
        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;
        proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
        proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
        proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
    }

   location ~ ^/api/(2\.0|v\d\.\d)/(diagnostic|files|mail|spam)\. {
        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8080; ## errorPage=? if you want to show own ONLYOFFICE error page
        proxy_buffer_size 64k;
        proxy_buffers 4 64k;
        proxy_read_timeout 3m;
        proxy_send_timeout 3m;
        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;
        proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
        proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
        proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
    }
}

Once you have added the content, save and exit the file.

Step 4: Configure Database

Execute the following commands to configure the database:
