Nginx setting to allow wss sockets to connect

[robi]

Having run across this at a previous robotics project doing Tele-existence, things weren't connecting well.

General idea of the config:

https + proxy pass + virtual host

Nginx as a proxy causes a failure of wss:// connections to the backend server.

Add these parameters to the proxy section :

proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection “upgrade”;
proxy_set_header Host $host;

Voila

Yup. FWIW, this is already enabled in Cloudron's nginx configuration for apps.

This looks like a similar issue with wss as in https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/3414/transcode-after-import-fails/23?_=1606977647141?

@imc67 I don't think @robi was reporting an issue, but just giving a helpful suggestion. Many apps already use wss on Cloudron like mattermost, rocket.chat (and Cloudron dashboard).

@girish ok, sorry, I think I was reading to fast and recognized wss: is an 503 error in PeerTube.

Does the PeerTube app also has these settings?
