Step 4: Configure Nginx for Joomla
Create a new configuration file for Joomla in the Nginx configuration directory:

Add the following configuration:
server {
listen 80;
server_name your_domain.com; # Replace with your domain
root /var/www/html/joomla; # Replace with your Joomla directory
index index.php index.html index.htm;
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string;
}

include fastcgi_params;
fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php-fpm/www.sock;

Save and exit the file.
