redirect from http to https

[mike]

your proxy_set_header stuff would go where you proxy things, not on
your redirection

your http to https should be a simple

 server {
       listen       80;
       server_name  www.domain.com domain.com;
      rewrite     ^(.*)  https://$server_name$1 permanent;
}

this is literally one i have working flawlessly (just changed the domain):

        server {
                listen 80;
                server_name foo.com bar.com;
                rewrite ^/(.*) https://foo.com/$1 permanent;
        }
