Duckdns + Nginx + http:// local?

[Matt_Barnes]

So I tried today to get duckdns with nginx working so I can use http:192.x.x.x:8123 to access HA from in my house.

Still couldn’t get it to work.

If I comment out anything to do with http: in my config I can access HA only through ip.

If I have the http bit relating to duckdns I can ONLY access HA through duckdns

Is there no way I can have duckdns and http:192…:8123 both working at the same time?

At the moment I have port 443 forwarded to 8123

I have seen people say you need 443 forwarded to 443 but doing that meant nothing worked.

Don’t want to move to other options really just want the above sorting out.

I have seen a thread suggesting you need to port forward to the ip of your pi but not sure how to do that.

Duckdns works
Nginx is running and nothing in the log
I have:

Http:
  Base_url: myduckdnsaddress 
  Ssl_certificate: /ssl etc etc 
  Ssl_key: /ssl/privkey etc

Try : -

DuckDNS - It's not just me - it's you!

Okay, As you can see from the above, there is a lot of confusion over which ports you can/should use. Some saying it HAS to be 8123 on the local side and that you HAVE to specify an http: entry in your configuration. No, you don’t ! Edit (20200512) : ‘sometime’ since this post was written the configuration no longer likes some of the “quotes” so I have included what the ‘modern’ versions of the config are, Note: I did not set it up with these (they were changed by updates to the pack…

for the port forwarding THIS IS REQUIRED
Look up your modem/routers instructions or enter the name into youtube with port forward
