While nginx still listens on port 80 (not port 443, as it should according to the configuration)
What I would like to do is reverse https nginx proxy for another http server, but now I just wanted to test out my certificates. I think that it's everything alright with the key/certificate pair, I've created them by:
$ sudo openssl genpkey -out fd.key \
-algorithm RSA \
-pkeyopt rsa_keygen_bits:2048 \
-aes-128-cbc
and then
$ sudo openssl req -new -x509 -days 365 -key server.key -out server.crt
I've left . (dot sign) in the fields during key/cert generation.
So I modified "default" site config file in /etc/nginx/available-sites like that:
server {
#listen 80 default_server;
#listen [::]:80 default_server;'
# SSL configuration
listen 9443 ssl default_server;
listen [::]:9443 ssl default_server;
ssl_certificate /etc/nginx/certs/server.crt;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/nginx/certs/server.key;
gzip off;
root /var/www/html;
location / {
#First attempt to serve request as file, then
# as directory, then fall back to displaying a 404.
# try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
}
(A lot of other code commented and not related to this case)
xyz@OV:/etc/nginx/sites-available$ sudo nginx -t
nginx: the configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf syntax is ok
nginx: configuration file /etc/nginx/nginx.conf test is successful
So it looks everything alright in this config.
After making changes in config I always do sudo systemctl restart nginx.service.
On this configuration loaded, when I issue the 'sudo ss -tupln' command it outputs:
Netid State Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address:Port Peer Address:Port Process
