reverse proxy HTTP->HTTPS

[Kostya Alexandrov]

You need to setup second server section, where you should configure ssl 
and copy your location(s),
"servers" part of my config looks like, where server.conf contains 
locations:

server {
server_name xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx;


listen zzzzzz:80;
access_log /data01/www/trading/logs/access_log.nossl;

error_log /data01/www/trading/logs/error_log.nginx warn;

include conf/server.conf;

}

server {
listen zzzzz:443;
server_name xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx;

ssl on;
ssl_certificate /usr/local/nginx/conf/ssl.cert/server.cert;
ssl_certificate_key /usr/local/nginx/conf/ssl.key/server.key.unsecure;

ssl_session_cache shared:TRADING:150m;
ssl_session_timeout 10m;

access_log /data01/www/trading/logs/access_log.ssl;

error_log /data01/www/trading/logs/error_log.nginx warn;

include conf/server.conf;

}
