Help Configuring NGINX Home Assistant SSL proxy Addon

Configuration
1

I currently have the Home Assistant Operating System running and I am attempting to get the NGINX Home Assistant SSL proxy addon working.

My goal is to simply be able to access Home Assistant through: homeassistant.blahblah.com

I’m only trying to set up local access as I will be using a VPN to access my local network.

So far, my config looks like this:

domain: homeassistant.blahblah.com
certfile: blahblah.crt
keyfile: blahblah.key
hsts: max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains
cloudflare: false
customize:
  active: false
  default: nginx_proxy_default*.conf
  servers: nginx_proxy/*.conf

I’ve set up my router to DNS homeassistant.blahblah.com to the Home Assistant’s IP, but I’m getting a cannot connect error.

I haven’t touched the default: ‘nginx_proxy_default*.conf’ or the servers: ‘nginx_proxy/*.conf’ part of the config because I have no idea what those are. I believe that is likely what is causing me issues.

I’ve searched, but I seem unable to locate how to set up this part of the config. Any guidance you might be able to provide would be so helpful.

HI @vanimox , what do you have under the network configuration of the add-on?
Also, have you already done the port forwarding on your router?
