I read the page for how to do a reverse proxy with nginx, but I can't get it to work with https. I followed the instructions on the page, and I think I modified them accordingly, but it bombed when trying to create the database.
To be clear here is what I want:
nginx reverse proxy, listenting only https (any http traffic is redirected to https),
forwards https://server/jira -> http://localhost:8080/ (JIRA instance, talking http to the proxy)
The jira-nginx-reverse-proxy page doesn't cover this scenario, it expects http-only.
The disconnect as I understand it comes from JIRA sending http links to a server that redirects it to https. It would be best if it just immediately moved it to https.
Thank you
PS. I can't believe that you would condone the submission of bug information in the clear in 2015.
