AW: nginx-1.23.3 on Win Server wth HTTPS

[Kappes, Michael]

Hello Francis
Dear readers,

Thanks for Help!

OK, the # stay on HTTPS ;-)

My "correct certificate information" is the Problem. Nginx tells me:

invalid number of arguments in "ssl_certificate" directive in C:\nginx\nginx-1.23.3/conf/nginx.conf:102
(please note: "\" and "/" in the same path?!)

C:\nginx\nginx-1.23.3\cert\ => here a my cert and key files
At my nginx.conf file (the syntax) =>

        ssl_certificate      C:\nginx\nginx-1.23.3\cert\1-Servername.cert.pem;
        ssl_certificate_key  C:\nginx\nginx-1.23.3\cert\1-Servername.cert.key;

I have tested both

C:\nginx\nginx-1.23.3\cert\

And also

C:/nginx/nginx-1.23.3/cert/

Both won't work...

Or, i make a temp folder ( for testing)

At my nginx.conf file (the syntax) =>

        ssl_certificate      C:\temp\1-Servername.cert.pem;
        ssl_certificate_key  C:\temp\1-Servername.cert.key;


Also here, i change "\" to "/" without that it makes a difference

Strange
Michael

In that file,

# HTTPS server

is a comment that should stay a comment.

You should uncomment and adjust the relevant lines that go from

# server {

to the matching

# }

Have a "listen" with "ssl", and the correct certificate information.

Good luck with it,
