I have a scenario in which I use Windows and Ubuntu on the same machine, and I want my sites to be shared across the OS. I have created a directory called 'common-sites' on my D drive, and I have configured the Drupal site with the domain drupal-demo-8.com.
My Ubuntu has an nginx web server. I want my common-sites to be available for Ubuntu as well.
Approach
Setup an nginx webserver with a Drupal installation and phpMyAdmin. I am assuming that you have already installed the Nginx web server on Ubuntu 16.04/RHEL.
Nginx is a web server for serving static content, but we are going to use it for Drupal 7.x and 8.x websites. In order to configure it, we need an additional service for PHP support, i.e. php-fpm.
Find and replace command sed for Ubuntu/Linux, find and replace the occurrence of particular string in a directory or sub directory using below commands:
