I am trying to make a reverse proxy server with Nginx, i have a Proxy (for HTTP) and a Proxy-SSL (For HTTPS)
I have some problems with the Proxy-SSL (HTTPS) I am getting a bad gateway 502 error when i am trying to connect to https://owncloud.example.eu
but when i use https for my example.eu site then everything is working flawless
the backend servers are LAMP’server
The logs are empty.
