Nginx - Upstream SSL - peer closed connection in SSL handshake

Question

I am getting this error:

Error frontend: 502 Bad gateway

99.110.244:443

2017/09/28 13:03:51 [error] 34080#34080: *1062 peer closed

Answer 1

Adding this line after the proxy_pass worked for me.

proxy_ssl_server_name on;

Before that I did this from here

In REDHAT 7/ CentOS 7/ Oracle Linux 7: Install the certificate in your enviroment.

1. Download Active PEM certificate from: https://letsencrypt.org/certificates/ in /etc/pki/ca-trust/source/anchors
2. Execute: sudo update-ca-trust

Not sure if those last 2 steps needed, but doing both worked for me.

Cheers,
