You can find Nginx configurations on nginx.conf file.

# Default locaction in mac if you have installed it through homebrew:

	/usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf

# Possible locations on Unix or Linux

	/etc/nginx/nginx.conf
	/opt/nginx/conf/

Open the configuration file: nginx.conf and locate server block under http block.

server {
    listen       80;
    server_name  java2novice.com www.java2novice.com;
    access_log   logs/java2novice.access.log  main;

    # serve static files as per the below configuration. The static file will be cached for 5 days
    location ~ ^/(images|javascript|js|css|flash|media|static)/  {
      root    /var/www/java2novice/htdocs;
      expires 5d;
    }

    # pass requests for dynamic content to rails/turbogears/zope, etc 
    location / {
      proxy_pass      http://127.0.0.1:8080;
    }
