Hi

After this weekend update I'm now getting errors on the nginx service, any ideas anyone?

This seems to be the offending line.

Running grep -R default_server /etc/nginx may help you to find where the overlapping default server configuration is coming from.
Otherwise, just check if there are any unintended configurations found in this directory.

This is what /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/pmg-quarantine.conf looks like:

Code: 
server {
    listen 80 default_server;
    rewrite ^(.*) https://$host$1 permanent;
}
 
server {
    listen 443;
    server_name _;
    ssl on;
    ssl_certificate /etc/pmg/pmg-api.pem;
    ssl_certificate_key /etc/pmg/pmg-api.pem;
    proxy_redirect off;

    proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
    proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
    proxy_set_header PVEClientIP $remote_addr;
    proxy_buffering off;
    client_max_body_size 0;
    proxy_connect_timeout  3600s;
    proxy_read_timeout  3600s;
    proxy_send_timeout  3600s;
    send_timeout  3600s;
    # proxy requests for static components
    location ~ /proxmoxlib.js$|/favicon.ico$|/pve2/|/fontawesome/|/framework7/|/pwt/css/ {
        proxy_pass https://localhost:8006;
    }
    location /quarantine {
        proxy_pass https://localhost:8006;
    }

    location /api2 {
        location ~ /api2/(extjs|json|htmlmail)/(access/ticket$|version$) {
            proxy_pass https://localhost:8006;
        }
        location ~ /api2/(extjs|json|htmlmail)/nodes/.+/subscription$ {
            proxy_pass https://localhost:8006;
        }
        location ~ /api2/(extjs|json|htmlmail)/quarantine {
            proxy_pass https://localhost:8006;
        }
        return 403;
    }

    location / {
        return 403;
    }
}

and this is the output root@pmg:~# grep -R default_server /etc/nginx
Code: 
/etc/nginx/sites-available/pmg-quarantine.conf:    listen 80 default_server;
/etc/nginx/sites-available/default:     listen 80 default_server;
/etc/nginx/sites-available/default:     listen [::]:80 default_server;
/etc/nginx/sites-available/default:     # listen 443 ssl default_server;
/etc/nginx/sites-available/default:     # listen [::]:443 ssl default_server;
/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/pmg-quarantine.conf:    listen 80 default_server;
/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default:       listen 80 default_server;
/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default:       listen [::]:80 default_server;
/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default:       # listen 443 ssl default_server;
/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default:       # listen [::]:443 ssl default_server;
 
If you remove default_server from /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/pmg-quarantine.conf, this should fix the issue.
You can also remove the default configuration from sites-enabled (or remove default_server from the files), should you want pmg-quarantine to be the default. In any case, there can only be one default_server.
 
i have the same issue but my error is dlopen() . this happened after updating from 6.4 to 7.1-8

nginx: [emerg] dlopen() "/usr/share/nginx/modules/ngx_stream_geoip_module.so" failed (/usr/share/nginx/modules/ngx_stream_geoip_module.so: undefined symbol: ngx_stream_add_variable) in /etc/nginx/modules-enabled/70-mod-stream-geoip.conf:1
