I'm using load balancer in front of an aws ec2 instance(I will have more in future). In this ec2, I have a website being served by nginx on port 80, a nodejs app listening on 8080 and the websocket on 4555.

My nginx.conf has rules to pass the requests based on location / as you can see:

server {
        listen       80 default_server;
        listen       [::]:80 default_server;
        server_name  localhost;
        root         /var/www/html;

        # Load configuration files for the default server block.
        include /etc/nginx/default.d/*.conf;

       #try_files $uri $uri/ @rewrite;
       # location @rewrite {
       #    rewrite ^/(.*)$ /index.php?param=$1;
       #}

    location /api {
               proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8080;
               proxy_http_version 1.1;
               proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
               proxy_set_header Connection 'upgrade';
               proxy_set_header Host $host;
               proxy_cache_bypass $http_upgrade;
        }

    location /chat {
                proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:4555;
                proxy_http_version 1.1;
                proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
                proxy_set_header Connection 'upgrade';
                proxy_set_header Host $host;
                proxy_cache_bypass $http_upgrade;
        }
}

It was working when I was redirectioning the connection directly to the instance but now that we have the loadbalancer in the front it doesn't work anymore.

web application output:

WebSocket connection to 'wss://www.domain.com/socket.io/?EIO=3&transport=websocket' failed: Error during WebSocket handshake: Unexpected response code: 200

And this is the headers:

  • OK, how did you set up the websocket endpoint in the load balancer? – Michael Hampton May 20 '19 at 19:10
  • @MichaelHampton The websocket endpoint it's the same ec2 of the webserver. It's an ec2 in the target group of this load balancer. I also tried to activate connection stickyness but no success. – Sandro Benevides May 20 '19 at 19:12
