You probably have a space after proxy_pass in your actual config; but
you probably should also have "https://" not "http://" there as well,
since your upstream service is listening for https connections.

The nginx error log should show its description of what it thinks is
happening; you can change the logging level to have more details written,
if that will help diagnose things.

And the port-5443 service should log something like "I got a http request
to a https port" wherever it writes its information.
