It's the same image, so it doesn't really matter - it's in the standard place. I would note given this and your other question - are you trying to split apart what's in the containers and do something with it? That's not something we really support upstream - if you want a cluster of AWX, deploy it in kubernetes or OpenShift. Bill ---

It’s in /etc/nginx/nginx.conf in the awx container AWX. The ports vary in the container and on the host machine. You can get the mapping of ports from container to host using `docker ps` command under ports column. ---
