A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

EDIT: It was a firewall issue. I disabled my firewall and it works.

https://listmonk.app/

The site loads properly on serverIP:5870 and if I change proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:5870; to proxy_pass http://listmonk.mydomain.com:5870; then it will load on listmonk.mydomain.com:5870. But it gives the 502 error when I visit the site without the port.

If I set proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:5870; and visit listmonk.mydomain.com:5870 I get:

The connection for this site is not secure
listmonk.mydomain.com sent an invalid response.

Thanks, I checked out your link. I think my most recent comment below answers some of your questions. https://lemmy.world/comment/5586470

Are you able to access listmonk directly without the reverse proxy? What is the URL I. The browser when you do that?

Besides the info I put in the OP, I'm not sure what else you're asking.

LAN IP address of the docker host

No idea what this is, so I looked it up https://www.howtogeek.com/devops/how-to-get-a-docker-containers-ip-address-from-the-host/ and ran docker ps then put the container ID at the end of this docker inspect -f '{{range.NetworkSettings.Networks}}{{.IPAddress}}{{end}}' docker-container-ID. It output an IP address which I used for proxy_pass http://docker-IP:5870;, restarted nginx, and nothing seems to have changed.

Not the docker container IP. The IP of the machine you are running docker itself on. Nginx is running in a container, it's not allowed to talk to the other docker container IP directly and it has a separate network stack from the listmonk container, so 127.0.0.1 only goes back to nginx.

Say your machine that you are running docker on is 192.168.0.67, the listmonk docker container is 172.16.0.89, and nginx container has an IP of 172.16.0.34.

Your nginx config would need the proxy to point to 192.168.0.67:5870.

Then make sure you don't have ufw or some similar firewall blocking the connection from nginx to listmonk.

Nginx is running in a container

I don't think it is. On my other machine it's running in the docker container, but not this one.

Using serverIP:5870 has the same result as using listmonk.mysite.com:5870. It loads a broken page https://i.stack.imgur.com/gIy4A.jpg with broken links. IE: the URLs are http://localhost:9000/subscription/form.
