So I just tried to install a single domain SSL certificate, I think it succeed but it complains “Something went wrong, sorry.” and then when trying to access admin panel I only got 404 page.

I did some check and seems nginx has lost configuration for `/admin`, in this file `/etc/nginx/conf.d/local.conf`

By adding back related configs from [https://github.com/mail-in-a-box/mailinabox/blob/master/conf/nginx-primaryonly.conf](https://github.com/mail-in-a-box/mailinabox/blob/master/conf/nginx-primaryonly.conf) it works again.

Not sure what goes wrong exactly, tried to check `/var/log/syslog` but found nothing…

Now it completely fails when I tried to add user under another domain, after saying “Something went wrong, sorry.” I just completely lost my `/admin` even if I add the nginx config back it’s just 404.
