Nginx configuration leads to endless redirect loop

Question

So I\'ve looked at every sample configuration I could find and yet every time I try and view a page that requires ssl, I end up in an redirect loop. I\'m running nginx/0.8.5

Answer 1

X_FORWARDED_PROTO as in your file can cause errors and it did in my case. X-Forwarded-Proto is correct whereas the hiphens are more important than uppercase or lowercase letters.

You can avoid those problems by sticking to conventions ;)
