Raju,

You need to have a fully working nginx install on your host.
If yes, then your "/etc/nginx" should have the "nginx.conf" file and "conf.d" directory.

Then when you launch "nginx-ui" docker container, you need to add your local /etc/nginx as a volume inside the "nginx-ui" docker container mapped to /etc/nginx such that the Python Flask application can read it's configuration and display the website.

1. Make sure that you local nginx is setup properly and your /etc/nginx directory is populated.
2. When you launch nginx-ui container mount your local nginx config directory into the container. use "-v /etc/nginx:/etc/nginx"

Other option

Launch 2 containers "nginx-ui" and "nginx" using "docker-compose.yml" and the use "/etc/nginx" as a shared volume on both "nginx-ui" and "nginx".

from nginx-ui.

now i got it, as i'm new to docker so a bit confusing with all those options and stuffs but now i can confirm its working on localhost:7777

I'll go head and close the issue.

What @debuggerboy mentioned, using the correct volumemapping works:

docker run -d --restart=always --name nginxui -v /etc/nginx:/etc/nginx -p 7777:8080 schenkd/nginx-ui:latest

The docs are "wrong".

Adding to this issue - When used with LinuxServer.io image of swag.

Map the swag/nginx directory to /etc/nginx of docker image of nginx-ui.
you will get the same error reported htere, because conf.d directory is not available.
Workaround:
create a symbolic link conf.d directory linked to proxy-confs directory. that
in swag/nginx directory execute: ln -s proxy-confs conf.d

restart container for nginx-ui. now this error would be resolved.
