18.7 Legacy Series / NGINX listen on WAN
« on: December 13, 2018, 05:05:15 pm »
Hi All
I am trying to setup nginx as a reverse proxy on the WAN to a webserver on the LAN.
I have followed the guide here https://docs.opnsense.org/manual/how-tos/nginx.html?highlight=nginx to the letter and know I have the correct internal host configured as the Upstream server, all settings followed.
I am starting to think this requires some configuration elsewhere that I am missing.
I have also configured the WAN interface on the firewall to allow connection to "This Firewall" on the port configured under the nginx "http server" port.
Also with the configuration internally the proxy works fine, if I point my LAN side browser at the LAN IP on the firewall I get proxied to the webserver fine, only failed WAN side.
Completely stumped here, any pointer much appreciated.
