Having trouble with Web Interface Via Nginx Proxy

[husskii]

Hi
I have been trying to get my proxmox server to connect with domain name and no port.
I have followed the wiki guide for Web Interface Via Nginx Proxy i setup my iptables

/sbin/iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 443 -j REDIRECT --to-port 8006

i can access my webui via local ip no port but i cant via domain name and no port.

can someone tell me if i am missing something or doing something wrong please.

ive been stuck on this for a fair while now with no luck..

could really use the help
thanks

yes i followed that guide and it does resolve but for some reason i can only access with port number it wont work without it. but when i use local IP i can access without port so im confused as why. and i followed that guide step by step.. ive tried on a number of machines and still no luck. i tried using the nginx proxy manager on a previous setup but that didnt work either, i have my ports open on 8006, 443 and 80 also

Hello,

You only need modify nginx file config, Why you using iptables?
I don't see any iptables modification on https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Web_Interface_Via_Nginx_Proxy
You are made things more hard in your brain, go step a step and is very easy to do my friend

hi originally i tried just the nginx config and that didnt work i tried multiple copies of people using and posting nginx config file for proxmox and none on them worked so i thought i would try iptables maybe that will help lol.. have you got it working without port? if so can i have a look at your config by any chance..

below is my conifig file atm. and the setup i followed step by step but no luck and its driving me nuts lol. the only thing i changed was the
listen 443; and removed ssl on; and added to listen 443 ssl; because syntax fails the other way and found that its supposed to be like that now on newer installs. and for

proxy_pass https://localhost:8006;

I have tried using the local and external ip. that didnt help either.

upstream proxmox {
server "pve.mydomain.com";
}

server {
listen 80 default_server;
rewrite ^(.*) https://$host$1 permanent;
}

server {

listen 443 ssl;
server_name _;
ssl_certificate /etc/pve/local/pve-ssl.pem;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/pve/local/pve-ssl.key;
proxy_redirect off;
location / {
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
proxy_pass https://localhost:8006;
proxy_buffering off;
client_max_body_size 0;
proxy_connect_timeout 3600s;
proxy_read_timeout 3600s;
proxy_send_timeout 3600s;
send_timeout 3600s;
}
}

Hello,

You do not need to edit anything in the config. Just your PVE domain. If the `nginx -t` returns successfully and the status of `nginx.service` is running without any error, that should work. However, I would check if you enable the Firewall and check if port 80 is listening by Nginx, not another service.
