Nginx on Jelastic won't start

Question

I'm starting a web app with nginx on Infomaniak (in 🇨🇭), and I have connections refused every time.

I found the issue, my Nginx service won't start, even after nodes restart.

Doing a sudo service Nginx start told me this

Starting nginx: nginx: [emerg] 
PEM_read_bio_X509_AUX("/var/lib/jelastic/SSL/jelastic.chain") failed 
(SSL: error:0906D06C:PEM routines:PEM_read_bio:no start 
line:Expecting: TRUSTED CERTIFICATE)

Answer 1

Jelastic SSL is not supposed to work with an external IP. After removing Jelastic SSL and changing ssl.conf to default - nginx will start without any problems. If you want to use an external IP and ssl certificate we suggest you installing Free Let’s Encrypt SSL Certificate, here you can find detailed step by step instruction
