I just started using Django and I try to deploy my project on the digital ocean server using Nginx. I am trying to set up SSL and domain (and they look good through the SSL checker and Google Dig DNS), however I get the 403 error in the browser once I try to access the webpage:
403 Forbidden nginx/1.14.0 (Ubuntu)
I have been trying different things with Nginx config but it does not seem to help, here is what I have now:
http {
...
server {
listen 443;
ssl on;
ssl_certificate /etc/ssl/server_merged_key.crt;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/ssl/other_key.key;
root /var/www/html;
server_name domain.net www.domain.net ;
location / {
root /var/www/html;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto https;
proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
proxy_redirect off;
}
...
}
The Django project is located on the home of the server with no directory (just two folders /mysite1/mysite/). The server starts fine.
I do not see any GET request on the server side once I see the 403 error on the page. I do see the 400 error You're accessing the development server over HTTPS, but it only supports HTTP., if I try to access through http://IP-IN-NUMBER:8000.
Also, the settings.py looks like this, if this relevant to the issue:
DEBUG = False
ALLOWED_HOSTS = ['IP-IN-NUMBERS','localhost', '127.0.0.1','HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO', 'https','domain.net'
,'www.domain.net']
SESSION_COOKIE_SECURE = True
CSRF_COOKIE_SECURE = True
SECURE_SSL_REDIRECT = True
How do I correctly set up Nginx for Django? Thank you so much for help!
