Infinite 301 redirect with reverse proxy setup

So hi, I’m having an issue with installing Discourse, everytime I try to connect to my website, I have an infinite 301 redirect

Here is my HOST nginx configuration of the discourse instance

server
{
        server_name dis.ob**********ie.fr;
        access_log /var/log/nginx/dis_access.log;
        error_log /var/log/nginx/dis_error.log;
        location / {
                proxy_pass http://dis.ob**********ie.fr:8150;
                #http://unix:/var/discourse/shared/standalone/nginx.http.sock:;
                proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
                proxy_http_version 1.1;
                proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
                proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
                proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        }
    listen 443 ssl; # managed by Certbot
    ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/dis.ob**********ie.fr/fullchain.pem; # managed by Certbot
    ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/dis.ob**********ie.fr/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 ($host = dis.ob**********ie.fr) {
        return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
    } # managed by Certbo

        server_name dis.ob**********ie.fr;
    listen 80;
    return 404; # managed by Certbot
}

Here is my app.yml

Thank you all for the support :heart:

Using a non standard port is not supported. You need to have ports 443 and 80 open. If you’ve rebuilt a bunch of times you’ve got rate limits with let’s encrypt and will need to wait a week or add a second hostname as described in Setting up Let’s Encrypt with Multiple Domains.

Do you mean non-standart port is not supported on host or guest?
I was following this tutorial:

Where it says:

If you are using some other reverse proxy that cannot use a web socket, you can instead expose a different port in the section above like - 8080:80 .

You didn’t mention the reverse proxy. The problem is likely there, not discourse. But, I think you’ll need to remove the ssl and let’s encrypt templates and handle that in the reverse proxy.

Thank you, I now have a 502 Bad Gateway when trying to connect.
It tried to connect to 127.0.0.1:8150 locally, but got nothing
Here my new discours app.yml:

C’est bon, j’ai trouvé ! Le Nginx guest écoutait sur la socket, j’ai mis mon host sur la socket aussi. Merciiii
