SSL_do_handshake() failed (SSL: error:0A00010B:SSL routines::wrong version number) while SSL handshaking to upstream nginx-proxy


It keeps giving me this error

Visually I see this bad gateway error. I double checked my IP address on EC2 and the domain provider to see if everything is pointed in the right direction and it seems fine.

Just to verify that is not an issue with my node.js app, I tried the IP directly and it works just fine without SSL

I ran nginx -T inside my docker container to get the loaded nginx configuration

Can someone kindly tell me how to fix this error?


Solution

  • This is likely caused by this block :

    location / {
      proxy_pass https://www.api.coinhexa.com;
      set $upstream_keepalive false;
    }
    

    And your upstream (server 172.18.0.7:21347) being an HTTP endpoint.

    Change your proxy_pass directive to use HTTP instead of HTTPS.

    Not related, but using the same names (www.api.coinhexa.com) on both upstreams and server_names makes the configuration a bit confusing and possibly cause issues.
