Once I've seen this before when I type a URL http://test.com/test/, instead of give me a html page, it gives me a 'file browser' like interface to browse all the files in the given location.
I think it maybe a nginx module that could be enable in the location context.
The nginx.conf file:
worker_processes 1; events { worker_connections 1024; } http { include mime.types; default_type application/octet-stream; sendfile on; keepalive_timeout 65; server { listen 80; server_name 122.97.248.252; location /test { root /home/yozloy/html/; autoindex on; } error_page 500 502 503 504 /50x.html; location = /50x.html { root html; } } } update the error.log
2012/05/19 20:48:33 [error] 20357#0: *72 open() "/home/yozloy/html/test" failed (2: No such file or directory), client: 125.43.236.33, server: 122.97.248.252, request: "GET /test HTTP/1.1", host: "unicom2.markson.hk
I must misunderstand the location /test mean, I thought it meant when I type http://example.com/test, then it would access the root dictionary which is /home/yozloy/html/

We can enable a server block's configuration file by creating a symbolic link from the sites-available directory to the sites-enabled directory, which Nginx will read during startup. To do this, enter the following command: sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/ example.com /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/
Nginx autoindex directives autoindex_exact_size; - This directive specifies whether Nginx should display the exact file sizes of the output in the directory index or simply round to the nearest KB, MB, or GB.
Serving static files using nginx as web server is a good option. For making the static files available you need to copy your testfolder to /usr/share/nginx/html inside the nginx image. After which you will be able to see the files on your browser on port 8080.
You should try ngx_http_autoindex_module.
Set autoindex option to on. It is off by default.
Your example configuration should be ok
location /{ root /home/yozloy/html/; index index.html; autoindex on; } Without autoindex option you should be getting Error 403 for requests that end with / on directories that do not have an index.html file. With this option you should be getting a simple listing:
<html> <head><title>Index of /</title></head> <body bgcolor="white"> <h1>Index of /test/</h1><hr><pre><a href="../">../</a> <a href="test.txt">test.txt</a> 19-May-2012 10:43 0 </pre><hr></body> </html> Edit: Updated the listing to delete any references to test

All answers contain part of the answer. Let me try to combine all in one.
Quick setup "file browser" mode on freshly installed nginx server:
Edit default config for nginx:
sudo vim /etc/nginx/sites-available/default Add following to config section:
location /myfolder { # new url path alias /home/username/myfolder/; # directory to list autoindex on; } Create folder and sample file there:
mkdir -p /home/username/myfolder/ ls -la >/home/username/myfolder/mytestfile.txt Restart nginx
sudo systemctl restart nginx Check result: http://<your-server-ip>/myfolder for example http://192.168.0.10/myfolder/
