Hi guys,
This is my first time here asking questions, untill now I read and learned from the best of you. So, I installed Ubuntu 14.04 on my Droplet, configured EasyEngine on it with nginx / php5-fpm and fastcgi. I bought a Positive SSL from namecheap and now I want to use it on my Wordpress site. So I put the ssl-bundle.crt and the domain_com.key in /var/www/domain.com/cert and after that I modified the file in /etc/nginx/sites-available/domain.com and put the following configuration:
# WPSINGLE FAST CGI NGINX CONFIGURATION
server {
listen 80;
listen 443 ssl;
server_name devly.co www.devly.co;
ssl on;
ssl_certificate /var/www/devly.co/cert/ssl-bundle.crt;
ssl_certificate_key /var/www/devly.co/cert/devly_co.key;
access_log /var/log/nginx/devly.co.access.log rt_cache;
error_log /var/log/nginx/devly.co.error.log;
root /var/www/devly.co/htdocs;
index index.php index.htm index.html;
include common/wpfc.conf;
include common/wpcommon.conf;
include common/locations.conf;
# force https-redirects
if ($scheme = http) {
return 301 https://$server_name$request_uri;
}
}
The thing is, the redirect doesn’t work, if I enter http://domain.com it won’t automaticaly redirect to https. What did I do wrong ? Also any recomendations ? My first time using SSL on a server.

Instead of specifying your http and https sites in the same server block I would recommend formatting your configuration in two server blocks, one for http and one for https.
If you are using CloudFlare HTTPS
Peace!
