For testing purposes, I placed an application in the /root/test-app/ directory. Setting up Nginx I got a 403 forbidden error. I tried all the methods provided in this video which didn't work for me. But thanks for the video :).

Doing some digging I found out that if I'm running an application under the /root folder I need to specify the directive >> user root; << in the Nginx config file.

This tells Nginx to run the Nginx worker with root privileges. Thus it can access the /root directory. So that makes sense :).

I am a Mandarin teacher and when my students sign in their Duolinggo sites, the 403 forbidden error will show up. My school IT manager says it is the Duolinggo website issue, not the issue from our school end. I am wondering if it is true and Duolingo just did their maintenance. From your video, it gave me the impression that my school should look into this. Is this right? Thanks

Hello, what happens if you're using an Android 11 cellphone? I'm familiar with the DOS screen on my laptop. Unaware it's possible on a cell?
