That’s when you decide to build your own.” This is a full breakdown of running Gitea on AWS EC2 — not a happy-path tutorial, but the actual build including every error I hit and how I resolved it. Architecture, configuration, the 502 debugging session, backup automation, and what three months of running this in production looks like.https://elijahu.me/portfolio/projects/nginx/Tue, 28 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0000https://elijahu.me/portfolio/projects/nginx/“403 errors on a freshly configured Nginx server are almost never about the file. They’re about the path to the file.” This is a configuration and troubleshooting reference for running Nginx on Ubuntu 22.04 on AWS EC2 — covering the full setup, the security group configuration that catches people out, and the complete 403 debugging chain. Written from a real configuration session where the permission issues took longer than they should have.
