Hi there @mmuhammadeuss,

I think that it might be due to your firewall, make sure that port 80 and 443 are open.

Another thing that could be causing the issue is the Nginx reverse proxy configuration. Could you share your exact Nginx configuration?

Also, is your application running on a DigitalOcean Droplet or on your local PC?
