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

To improve the other answer I would say that

upstream is really important

For simple redirect from one domain into another just use this:

http {
....
upstream someserver {
        server your.domain.name.com:443;
}

location / {
   proxy_pass https://someserver;
}

}
