Running PeerTube on the same server as Mastodon - nginx config problem

PeerTube
1

Hi everyone, is it possible to run peertube on the same server as Mastodon?
Both instances will be small, so i’m not worried about performance, but I’m having trouble with nginx and the « upstream » directive. I assume it’s conflicting with the mastodon instance as the details are the same. I’m pretty new to nginx, so I have no idea of the significance.

the error is « nginx: [emerg] duplicate upstream « backend » in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/peertube:18 » when i try and start nginx with both mastodon and peertube activated

Can I just rename everything in the nginx config file from « backend » to « backend2 » or « backendpt »?

Sure! You use the name you want: Module ngx_http_upstream_module

Thank you for you quick reply!
I renamed the upstream directive, and the proxy_pass lines, and it started.
