Hi All I would like to deploy Discourse behind nginx-proxy ( GitHub - nginx-proxy/nginx-proxy: Automated Nginx Reverse Proxy for Docker · GitHub ). This seems to be a pretty popular proxy and I already have it working with other sites and its Letsencrypt companion. There’s small bits of information …

It looks like it should “just work”. You’ll need to change the Discourse port number by editing app.yml by hand (and, obviously, don’t enable Let’s Encrypt in app.yml). Give it a try and let us know.

Thanks, @pfaffman . I tried that. No luck. I get something like this, when checking my nginx-logs: 2018/08/14 14:11:25 [error] 8#8: *60 no live upstreams while connecting to upstream, client: {my_client_ip}, server: { myapp.mydomain.com }, request: “GET / HTTP/1.1”, upstream: “http://{ myapp.mydomain.…

Hi, I get the same troubles as @confused … It seems that it doesn’t take care of VIRTUAL_HOST environment. Moreover, why can’t we set the “ports” parameters as exposed by docker-compose ? If anyone else has a workaround, that would save a lot of time… Thank you.

I have shared various files of mine below with personal settings obfuscated. My setup is as follows. Two Ubuntu 18.04 servers running Nginx: Server1, Server 2 Both servers are running Nginx v. 1.14.0 with LetsEncrypt SSL certificates. Both servers are using CSF as a software-level firewall. The ma…

I use jwilder/nginx-proxy with discourse just fine. What I did was to add the following stuff to my app.yml file: VIRTUAL_HOST: domain.com VIRTUAL_PORT: 80 LETSENCRYPT_HOST: domain.com LETSENCRYPT_EMAIL: some@email.com My ports are like this, but I don’t remember anymore why… I think it avoid dis…

Thanks, @vitorl ! [image] vitorl: docker_args: - “–network=name-of-your-network” This is what I was missing. Thanks. Real IP snippet is really helpful too.

@vitorl @confused Could one of you show me your docker-compose file? I am having trouble getting this working. Here is mine: ## this is the all-in-one, standalone Discourse Docker container template ## ## After making changes to this file, you MUST rebuild ## /var/discourse/launcher rebuild app ##…

Here is mine, beware that I have a lot of custom settings, so it may not work out of the box for you. This is my app.yml ## After making changes to this file, you MUST rebuild ## /var/discourse/launcher rebuild app templates: - "templates/postgres.template.yml" - "templates/redis.template.yml…

For some reason my real ip snippet is not working anymore. Not sure if it’s because of cloudflare CDN. do you have cloudflare and is it working with you?

If the orange cloud is on then try turning it off does that solve the problem? You can’t use Cloudflare caching or optimisations on discourse code anyhow, so it’s of limited value.
