lemmy.world should redirect to https (secure) site
When you visit http://lemmy.world it should redirect to https://lemmy.world - at least the login page should be secure.
You're viewing a single thread.
Hmm , when I replace this:
http { server { listen 80; server_name lemmy.world; location / { proxy_pass http://lemmy-ui:1234; proxy_set_header Host $host; } }
with this:
http { server { listen 80; server_name lemmy.world; location / { return 301 https://$host$request_uri; } }
it breaks, gives 502 when visiting the site...
ideas? (I'm not that much into nginx...)
4 0 ReplyYou could try this
this config snippet is assuming thet you've already got the TLS cert/pem file for lemmy.world elsewhere in your nginx.config
http { server { listen 80; listen 443 ssl; server_name lemmy.world; if ($scheme = "http") { return 307 https://$host$request_uri; } location / { proxy_pass http://lemmy-ui:1234; proxy_set_header Host $host; } }
If you get redirected to lemmy.world:1234, then add
absolute_redirect off;
in the 'server' blockLast thing - 307 is a temporary redirect, you might to change it to a permanent one once you've confirmed it's working as intended

Can we get an error log? If no, are you seeing any timeouts in there?
3 1 ReplyYou might want to add the secure port (:443) in your redirect. Otherwise it might be trying to load https on port 80 still, which can’t work.
- http: port 80
- https: port 443
Notes:
- just a guess. I haven’t looked at an nginx config in a while
- make sure to try on multiple browsers as they all don’t behave the same way
1 0 ReplyThis piece I've pasted above isn't the whole nginx.conf, there's also a large block for the 443 traffic. It's just the http traffic that I need to redirect to 443.
1 0 ReplyOk. Now that I think about it, you shouldn’t have to specify the port.
