I tried to follow this doc ( https://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticbeanstalk/latest/dg/java-se-nginx.html ) but couldn't build the custom nginx conf. I am able to deploy an application and environment and it works. After testing a working environment I wanted to modify some nginx configurations and I followed the steps as:
cd WS
mkdir -p .ebextensions/nginx/conf.d
cp ~/dozee.conf .ebextensions/nginx/conf.d
eb deploy
WS is a directory from where eb deploy works perfectly. After logging(ssh) into the instance created by eb environment I could see the dozee.conf present at /var/app/current/.ebextensions/nginx/conf.d/ but was not present at /etc/nginx/conf.d/.
What I might be missing here? Any help is appreciated :)
