lemmy.world should redirect to https (secure) site (self.lemmyworld)

When you visit http://lemmy.world it should redirect to https://lemmy.world - at least the login page should be secure.

Hmm , when I replace this:

http {
  server {
    listen 80;
    server_name lemmy.world;

    location / {
        proxy_pass http://lemmy-ui:1234;
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
    }
}

with this:

http {
  server {
    listen 80;
    server_name lemmy.world;

    location / {
        return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
    }
}

it breaks, gives 502 when visiting the site...

ideas? (I'm not that much into nginx...)

You might want to add the secure port (:443) in your redirect. Otherwise it might be trying to load https on port 80 still, which can’t work.

http: port 80
https: port 443

Notes:

just a guess. I haven’t looked at an nginx config in a while
make sure to try on multiple browsers as they all don’t behave the same way

This piece I've pasted above isn't the whole nginx.conf, there's also a large block for the 443 traffic. It's just the http traffic that I need to redirect to 443.

Ok. Now that I think about it, you shouldn’t have to specify the port.
