Configuring virual host (server block) on nginx

How to properly configure virtual host on nginx?
I have my domain pointed to my dedicated server
I have configured files in /etc/nginx/sites-available/domain1.com

content of domain1.com is:

Code:

server {

  server_name www.domain1.com domain1.com;



  root /var/www/domain1.com;



  access_log /var/log/nginx/domain1.com.access.log;



  index index.html index.php index.htm;



  # serve static files directly

  location ~* \.(jpg|jpeg|gif|css|png|js|ico|html)$ {

    access_log off;

    expires max;

  }



  location ~ /\.ht {

    deny  all;

  }

}

I have created symlink to sites-available using ln -s command
my default.conf of nginx points to root /usr/share/nginx/html

I create all with root access, www folder has root ownership and group own, same /www/domain1.com folder,
domain1.com has privilages drwxr-xr-x
I have phpbb forums files (installed) when I enter domain1.com it displays 403 forbidden ..
On apache2 it works fine

Any Idea what is wrong ? why this doesnt work?

According to the vhost configuration the DocumentRoot is /var/www/domain1.com and not /www/domain1.com as you say above.
Also have a look at the error.log to see what is the reason for the 403 error you get

Regards

its working now, path was set wrong thanks
