2,386 PointsWhat is the Nginx Port Number? I see that Apache and Nginx cannot have the same value.
Apache Port : 80 Nginx Port : 80 MySQL Port: 3306
This gives me the following error:
"There is a problem with the server ports. Each server must be assigned a unique port. Please check your configuration."

11,586 Pointsyeah that worked for me also, but the question is: "what is the NGinx port number?" and i'll take it a step further and ask for a clarification of what is Nginx; what is it's purpose, what is it used for etc. . .

Leaving Nginx at the default 7888 worked for me.
Hope that helps

11,586 PointsHey rich, I hope I didn't come off as an ahole. I was just looking for the same answer and just re-read my response. I meant no disrespect whatsoever. The link does help, thank you. My concern is that some of the vids are outdated a bit and need to be redone to keep up with the ever changing field that is the interwebs =) I love treehouse, it's taught me a great deal but I feel that some vids do need a facelift. Like the one we are chatting about now.

25,869 PointsHi Joseph,
It was the question you're correct. I wasn't familiar with it to advise (tried to help with the error that was posted instead) but from a quick Google search here's the info on Nginx.
Hope that helps

7,691 PointsHi Joseph. Nginx is web server software, like Apache. It is not as feature-rich as Apache, but is lighter and faster. Due to this, it's being increasingly used on high-performance contexts and to deploy applications built on other platforms (such as Python/Django).
WordPress is a bit intertwined with Apache, but with plugins like Nginx Helper you can try using Nginx too.
