title: 403 Forbidden Nginx
body: <p>I am using nginx as web server for running html contents. When I copy my index.html into /usr/share/nginx destination it is working fine loading web page. But my project located in /var/www/example.com directory. When i give that path into nginx.conf it is getting error 403 Forbidden. </p>
  
  <p>Below I attached nginx.conf. </p>
