Nginx as a reverse proxy doesn't resolve

I'm trying to use NGINX as a simple reverse proxy. My content is live on localhost:7700.

These are my steps:

apt-get -qq install nginx -y
rm -f /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default
cat << EOF > /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/meilisearch
server {
    listen 80 default_server;
    listen [::]:80 default_server;
    server_name _;
    location / {
        proxy_pass  http://localhost:7700;
    }
}
EOF

systemctl daemon-reload
systemctl enable nginx
systemctl restart nginx

Apparently Ngninx is running ok when I look at:

service nginx status

However when I go to my IP of my server I don't see the content, it just says "Failed to open page". Where am I going wrong? There is nothing in the access.log or error.log of nginx.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
