Nginx Upgrading Nginx via Menu Option 4 broke it

• CentOS Version: CentOS 7 64bit
• Centmin Mod Version Installed: 123.09beta01
• Nginx Version Installed: 1.21.0 -> upgraded to 1.21.1
• The only line in the persistent config I have is LETSENCRYPT_DETECT='y'

I updated the Centmin code base, and later updated Nginx from 1.20.0 to 1.21.1, after following the prompt that there's a new version available. After I upgraded the nginx version, it broke all the sites on my server. I tried downgrading to 1.21.0 but it didn't fix the issue.

nginx -t outputs:

Code (Text):

nginx: [emerg] duplicate location "/" in /usr/local/nginx/conf/conf.d/domain.com.ssl.conf:69
nginx: configuration file /usr/local/nginx/conf/nginx.conf test failed

This is the file's content starting with line 69:

Code (Text):

  location / {
  include /usr/local/nginx/conf/503include-only.conf;


  # Enables directory listings when index file not found
  #autoindex  on;

  # for wordpress super cache plugin
  try_files /wp-content/cache/supercache/$http_host/$cache_uri/index.html $uri $uri/ /index.php?q=$uri&$args;

  # for wp cache enabler plugin
  #try_files $cache_enabler_uri_webp $cache_enabler_uri $uri $uri/ $custom_subdir/index.php?$args;

  # Wordpress Permalinks
  #try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?q=$uri&$args;

  # Nginx level redis Wordpress
  # https://community.centminmod.com/posts/18828/
  #try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args;

  }

I tried using older nginx conf backups from the auto backups. I tried upgrading PHP too. Both didn't solve the issue. I can't start/restart nginx, because of the same issue.

EDIT:

Disabling autoprotect.sh fixed the issue. Beta Branch - autoprotect.sh - apache .htaccess check & migration to nginx deny all

So what's the long-term solution here? Should I delete all .htaccess files I find and enable autoprotect? As far as I checked, there isn't any important stuff in the htaccess files. Some of the plugins I use automatically add a .htaccess file, so they may add it again even if I delete it

 

Here it is:

location /wp-content/plugins/akismet/ {
  location ~ ^/wp-content/plugins/akismet/(.+/)?(form|akismet)\.(css|js)$ { allow all; expires 30d;}
  location ~ ^/wp-content/plugins/akismet/(.+/)?(.+)\.(png|gif)$ { allow all; expires 30d;}
  location ~* /wp-content/plugins/akismet/.*\.php$ {
    include /usr/local/nginx/conf/php.conf;
    allow 127.0.0.1;
    deny all;
  }
}

  location ~ ^/wp-content/wflogs/(.+/)?(.+)\.(php|cgi|pl|php3|php4|php5|php6|phtml|shtml)$ { allow 127.0.0.1; deny all; }
}

location / {
  location ~ ^/(.+/)?(.+)\.(js)$ { allow all; expires 30d; }
  location ~ ^/(.+/)?(.+)\.(css)$ { allow all; expires 30d; }
  location ~ ^/(.+/)?(.+)\.(gif|jpe?g|png|webp|eot|svg|ttf|woff|woff)$ { allow all; expires 30d; }
  location ~ ^/(.+/)?(.+)\.(php|cgi|pl|php3|php4|php5|php6|phtml|shtml)$ { allow 127.0.0.1; deny all; }
}

 

That fixed it. Thanks!
