Internet Allow per NGINX Proxy (External) with dyndns adress

Torsten Paul January 29, 2021

Hello,

Have a problem not being able to access the Confluence server from external. Somewhere there is something wrong with my settings.

The following has already been submitted: server is running local with internal network address 192.168.178.76:8090.

Nginx is installed and running without having any other proxy modules installed. Is there anything else that needs to be enabled and activated?

 

Created a custom dyn-dns-confluence.conf (/etc/nginx/sites-available) with the following content:

server {
listen 80;
listen [::]:80;
server_name subdomain.dyndns.de;

listen 999 default ssl;
ssl on;
ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/subdomain.dyndns.de/fullchain.pem;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/subdomain.dyndns.de/privkey.pem;

ssl_session_timeout 5m;

location /confluence {
client_max_body_size 100m;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Server $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_pass http://192.168.178.76:8090/;
}
location /synchrony {
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Server $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_pass http://192.168.178.76:8091/synchrony;
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection "Upgrade";
}
}

 

SSL certificate Let's Encrypt is installed and running correctly.

On the router, port 999 is enabled and open.

the File had Settings:

/etc/nginx/nginx.conf

 

user www-data;
worker_processes auto;
pid /run/nginx.pid;
include /etc/nginx/modules-enabled/*.conf;

events {
worker_connections 768;
# multi_accept on;
}

http {

# server_names_hash_bucket_size 64;
# server_name_in_redirect off;

include /etc/nginx/mime.types;
default_type application/octet-stream;

include /etc/nginx/conf.d/*.conf;
include /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/*;
}

When browsing to https://subdomain.dyndns.de:999 it only shows me the start page of nginx.

/usr/share/nginx/html/index.html

????

It seems that the proxy is not working yet. Where is my error or is something missing in the settings?

 

On the server, the base URL was changed to:

https://subdomain.dyndns.de:999 from http://192.168.178.76:8090

 

 

Thanks

Thank you for waiting 10 hours for an answer here. For this you now pay a license! For what actually? Now try to solve the problem yourself. Help from Atlassian is no longer needed. Have a nice evening !
