Most of the problems you run into occur during the early configuration stages while you test your server before production. These problems are usually easier to deal with, because you are mentally prepared for the challenge, and more importantly, because Nginx points out syntax or configuration errors on startup. It is, on the other hand, much more difficult to identify the cause of malfunctions while your websites are actually in production stages.

This concludes our journey with Nginx, during which we have been through a large number of subjects, from basic mechanisms of the HTTP server to web application deployment and troubleshooting.
