Hello, I was following different guides to set up https on my nginx. Right now my nginx.conf looks like this:
# HTTP SERVER
server {
server_name mysite.com;
listen 80 default_server;
listen [::]:80 default_server;
location / {
rewrite ^ https://$http_host$request_uri? permanent;
}
}
# HTTPS Server
server {
listen 443;
server_name mysite.com;
ssl on;
ssl_certificate /etc/nginx/ssl/mysite.com.crt;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/nginx/ssl/mysite.com.key;
access_log /var/log/nginx/client-access.log;
error_log /var/log/nginx/client-error.log;
root /usr/share/nginx/html;
index index.html index.htm;
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/index.html/index.html;
}
}
When I test it I get the result: nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test is successful
I deleted the firewall, so when I run:
sudo ufw status
I get: command not found
After every configuration change I do:
service nginx reload
When I try to view a page via https, I see Chrome error page with ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED
If I run netstat -nlp | grep :443
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:443 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 9683/nginx: master
I was wondering maybe my: ssl_certificate /etc/nginx/ssl/mysite.com.crt; ssl_certificate_key /etc/nginx/ssl/mysite.com.key;
are not correct, would I see any errors/logs if they were wrong?
I don’t know what else to check?

Hello @taraskryvko,
Overall your configuration looks good but you need to update it a bit, here is how it should look like
Test it out and let me know how it goes.
