UPDATE: It may be closed, remember to always check code copied from outside... The problem was with quote marks in Daphne Service

I want to deploy my Django app (Rest API + React on frontend) on AWS. I use nginx, gunicorn (for http handling) and daphne (for async websockets - Im using django channels for chat application). I was following THIS tutorial.

It looks like I configured well nginx and gunicorn (page is normally loading, I can handle sync request to rest API) but I guess there are some problems with daphne and/or asgi. I use systemctl services for server. All 3 (nginx, gunicorn, daphne) statuses show 'active'. Everything works fine on my development server on local.

On deployment server when I enter website, I see in console

Firefox can’t establish a connection to the server at ws://PATH_TO_WEBSOCKET

Is Daphne connected well with Nginx?

I use Redis for CHANNEL_LAYERS. I have installed channels-redis and redis-server on Ubuntu server. I think it works fine as I get respond

> redis-cli
> ping
