Nginx reverse proxy with SSL leads to no connection

Grafana Configuration
1

Hi everyone, I’ve been trying to set up Grafana 8.3 to run on my server with SSL using Nginx on Ubuntu 20.04 .3 LTS but I just can’t get it to work. I’ve spent a few hours trying to get this working it’s starting to drive me nuts.

I’ve installed Grafana and it works by default from the servers IP address and domain at sub.example.com:3000 with HTTP. But I want to run it with SSL (Let’s Encrypt).

Can someone share with me grafana.ini and nginx configuration that work with SSL?

Thanks in advance.

welcome to the :grafana: forum, @soundium

are you trying to use SSL and still connect on port 3000? I think you will need to set up a proxy pass for that to work. Here is my nginx server block to run Grafana on a subdomain on Ubuntu 20. I got SSL set up using Certbot / lets encrypt


server {
        server_name grafana.zuchka.dev;
        location / {
          proxy_pass   http://127.0.0.1:3000;
        }


    listen 443 ssl; # managed by Certbot
    ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/grafana.zuchka.dev/fullchain.pem; # managed by Certbot
    ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/grafana.zuchka.dev/privkey.pem; # managed by Certbot
    include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-nginx.conf; # managed by Certbot
    ssl_dhparam /etc/letsencrypt/ssl-dhparams.pem; # managed by Certbot

}


server {
    if ($host = grafana.zuchka.dev) {
        return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
    } # managed by Certbot


        server_name grafana.zuchka.dev;
    listen 80;
    return 404; # managed by Certbot
