I’ve been trying to get my domain to redirect to HTTPS but I keep getting a 502 Bad Gateway error… Here’s my config:
server {
listen 85 default_server;
listen [::]:85 default_server;
server_name domain.com www.domain.com;
return 301 https://$server_name$request_uri;
}
server {
listen 443 ssl;
ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/domain.com/fullchain.pem; # managed by Certbot
ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/domain.com/privkey.pem; # managed by Certbot
include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-nginx.conf; # managed by Certbot
ssl_dhparam /etc/letsencrypt/ssl-dhparams.pem; # managed by Certbot
server_name domain.com www.domain.com;
root /var/www/html;
index index.php;
client_max_body_size 100M;
location / {
# try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?q=$uri&$args;
}
error_page 404 /404.html;
error_page 500 502 503 504 /50x.html;
location = /50x.html {
root /usr/share/nginx/html;
}
location ~ \.php$ {
try_files $uri =404;
fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$;
fastcgi_index index.php;
include fastcgi_params;
}
location ~ /\.ht {
deny all;
}
}

Hello,
It looks like that your PHP is not being handled correctly.
I would recommend following the steps here on how to setup PHP-FPM with Nginx:
Depending on your PHP version and on your PHP-FPM config your php location should look something similar to this:
location ~ \.php$ {
include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
fastcgi_pass unix:/run/php/php7.0-fpm.sock;
}
