nginx proxy with ssl

Question

Hello!

I have a local web server listening on port 80

can i make a nginx redirect to it using ssl?

like

sudo site example.com -proxy=[localhost:80] -ssl

Comments

I asked something wrong?

---

The standard for SSL is port 443 so I doubt you'll have much luck with that.

---

Nothing wrong, it's just better if you just try it before asking. Share your effort!

And yes, you can use the "reverse proxy" site configuration for that purpose, just read the docs and try it!

---

You make a good point.

there is no solution to my problem and no one began to help me

so i tried it myself

1. create empty site

site mysite.com -html

2. add ssl

site mysite.com -ssl=on

3. delete site, but dont delete ssl cert

site mysite.com -delete

Revoke SSL Cert [Y/n]? 

answer No

4. add reverse proxy

site mysite.com -proxy=[192.168.7.102:80]

5. add ssl fo reverse proxy site

mkdir /opt/mysite.com

site mysite.com -ssl=on -root-path=/opt/mysite.com

I see you've doine things a little differently, and in a different order, which just goes to show, you don't know what you don't know... until some kind soul points it out to you!

Thank you Diki, I think you might have broken the log jam.

---

That makes no sense and it will be broken in a couple of months when the cert will try to auto-renew and it will be misconfigured!

Please, read the docs about how to create a cert for reverse proxy sites with custom root paths. You don't need to create an "empty" site!

---

I regret nothing =)

It may break, but it's a problem for me from the future

I tried to search for information on webinoly documentation site and found only examples for local sites
