I can't get my dotnet mvc app to be hosted correctly over ssl (https). It only works over http. The following is my relevant nginx files (with "example.org" used instead of my domain)
/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default

This makes my site work over "http://example.org" but not over "https://example.org". I don't know why it won't work over https? I tried altering my /etc/nginx/nginx.conf file to make it like the recommended documentation for asp.net hosting via Microsoft. Here's my new /etc/nginx/nginx.conf file.
/etc/nginx/nginx.conf

When I change my /etc/nginx/nginx.conf file to the above, both "http://example.org" and "https://example.com" fail. So how do I get this app to work over https?
CodePudding user response：
The problem was actually my ufw firewall. When I was setting up the droplet I did the commands:
sudo ufw enable
sudo ufw allow OpenSSH
sudo ufw default deny incoming
sudo ufw allow 'Nginx HTTP'
The problem above is that was supposed to do sudo ufw allow 'Nginx Full' then sudo reboot. After this, my original nginx configuration worked!
CodePudding user response：
Try the config below (don't forget to disable https redirection in your app - remove app.UseHttpsRedirection(); from your Program.cs (Startup.cs) and remove applicationUrl https reference from launchSettings.json "https://localhost:5001"):
worker_processes 1;
events { worker_connections 1024; }
http {
sendfile on;
access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log combined;
error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log;
