Hello, I’ve been messing around with prosody and snikket and that means I’ve been messing around with nginx. I was having some issues so I decided to uninstall nginx and after anothet round of messing around with snikket, decided to install nginx again. It showed this error and I don’t really know what to do, since I’m really not that good with self-hosting yet. Please help. I will give more info as needed.

your running something on port 443 already, if its nginx thats still running kill it. If not, then found out what is running on port 443 and kill it use ss -nlp to find the process name

Run it with sudo in case you don’t see the process name with the above command.

sudo ss -patln | grep 443
