Hello @thehappydinoa Evilginx only support Debian right now but you can help us in the experiment docker image here: https://github.com/kgretzky/evilginx/pull/45

You should able to run this on any operating system with Docker installed.

[thehappydinoa]

@poweroftrue Kali-Rolling is Debian...

thehappydinoa. Try another kali distro. It works.

[abdozekaa]

Evidently /etc/nginx/nginx.conf is having an error and it is failing, what I gather from the error output. Can you post here the contents of that file?

The problem is that /etc/nginx/nginx/modules folder doesn't exist as its normally supposed to be /etc/nginx/modules (which is a symlink to /usr/lib64/nginx/modules -- in redhat-related anyways)

I suggest looking the the file "ngx_http_au" (we can't see the complete filename) in your computer (if anything debian/ubuntu there's a chance it might be located somewhere in /usr/lib/nginx or the likes /usr/lib/nginx/modules )

once you know where the file is, you can:

mkdir -p /etc/nginx/nginx
ln -s /usr/lib/nginx/modules/ /etc/nginx/nginx/modules
nginx -t

if you end up with more garbage, check your nginx.conf and change the loadmodule line if it points somewhere not correct

Hope that helps

Thanks for that, I will search.

I have a question/suggestion, isn't it possible to link evilginx with ngork? I mean Social Fish already do that but only for credentials.

It could be awesome to let people to use localhost, even domain name will be less realistic, you were not obligated to buy one !

Thanks to you.

edit your /etc/hosts file (under linux, as admin) and add your ip address followed by whatever domain you'd like.... (add a line to the file, similar to this one but with a ip that works for you)

127.0.0.1 domain.fake www.domain.fake

then change or add a server_name line to your nginx server block

server {
    listen 80;
    listen [::]:443;
    server_name domain.fake;
    server_name www.domain.fake;
    .....
    ......
}

assuming you have all the correct ports open ... trying http://domain.fake in your browser you return to your local nginx server

As for the question -- i have no idea how evlginx works i havnt played with it. I do lots of nginx in general tho..
